Answer to Question 1

No one knows if methane hydrates can be effectively recovered. Methane is a greenhouse gas, 10
times more effective at trapping heat than carbon dioxide. So using methane hydrates could seriously
increase global warming



Answer to Question 2

A nation may claim sovereign rights over an area that extends seaward 200 miles (371 km) from its
shoreline, allowing it and no other nation access to the resources found there.
