The tundra is frozen land in the subarctic regions, and sequesters absolutely huge amounts of carbon as frozen vegetation. Any threat to the tundra is a threat to human society. If global warming reaches the point where the tundra begins to melt, the vegetation would begin to rot, giving off large amount of carbon dioxide. This carbon dioxide would contribute to further global warming, which in turn would melt further areas of tundra. This results in a runaway effect known as positive feedback, whereby any increase in temperature results in a further increase in temperature.
