Nowhere....just like where were they all when the US gov't blew up the Nordstream Pipeline releasing all that oil into the water???

not oil, it was natural gas, that turned into methane in the atmosphere. Methane is the most destructive greenhouse gas. CO2 doesn't even register.

Sorry but it's water vapor that causes the most atmospheric warming along with the giant fireball in the sky.

it contributes the most because it is the most abundant atmospheric warming enhancer, but methane beats it for potency of heating for a given amount. The Hunga Tonga volcano last year threw enough seawater into the mesosphere to raise the temp 1.5C over the next couple of years. This is far more than the .5C that CO2 mitigation is supposed to produce over more than a decade
