Abstract

The paper shows that climate change (temperature fluctuations) on the Earth, caused by solar variations, is a cyclic natural process, which geochronologically accompanies periods of warming and cooling. At present another temperature decline is forecast. This is very important for gas production in the permafrost area of polar ecosystems since allows to support the firmness of grounds and sustainability of different construction basements, pipelines, roads and wells. The given cooling trend is bound to increase energy demand globally, as well as locally. It is suggestive that the International Energy Agency outlook projects increasing energy demand, with energy produced by oil, coal and especially natural gas, which will allow the latter to take the second place after oil in 2035. The conclusion is that such a climate dynamics is also important for the sustainable gas supply.
