Massive sinkholes are appearing in Russia. How did they get there?

Three large sinkholes have suddenly surprised the country of Russia the past few weeks and their appearances have surprised many experts. The first sinkhole was found a few weeks back in the Yamal Peninsula in northern Russia, near the arctic circle. The size of it was pretty large, at 160 feet around and 230 feet deep, about the size of half a soccer field. The second sinkhole was much smaller but found only 18 miles away from the first one.
The third one was just discovered and is the smallest of the three. But how did these sinkholes appear? How did they get there? Some experts now believe they have the answer.
This area is a large producer of natural gas, but no one believes that the production companies have caused them, they think it was all mother nature herself.
This region of the globe was covered by a large sea over 10,000 years ago. When the sea dried up the salt, water, sand and gas all froze in the soil under ground. But since the earth is warming at an alarming rate, it is melting all the elements and creating pressure. This pressure is great enough to act like champagne in a bottle and eventually the top blew right off.
More sinkholes could appear in the coming days, but no one really knows. It all depends on if the earth has released enough pressure with the three sinkholes already found.

Ebola virus: ‘We should be more worried about viruses in the UK’ says infectious diseases expert
An infectious diseases expert has revealed that there are diseases in the UK which pose more of a threat to the UK than the Ebola virus.
The Ebola outbreak in West Africa is the world’s biggest and most widespread to date and Dr Chris van Tulleken also told This Morning that a case in London was “not impossible”.
Speaking to hosts Ruth Langsford and Eamonn Holmes, he said: “It’s very interesting that we’re getting excited about it. Ebola has been going for many, many months. If we’re going to get excited about it there are many, many more diseases in our own country, that pose more risk, that’s what we should be worried about… It’s not impossible that we will see cases in London.”
However, when asked about the risks to the population Dr Chris said: “It’s not terribly contagious.
“It is a category grade 4 virus which means it’s both relatively easy to spread and extremely deadly if you get it.”

He added: “It’s not a very well understood virus but one of the major mechanisms is bleeding which leads to multi-organ failure.”
“The incubation period is from 2-21 days but it can happen very quickly.”
When asked why the virus is spreading in West Africa, replied: “It is extremely difficult to contain this kind of virus in that part of the world.”
