Napalm it.

Well sure, but napalm is really inefficient, and would release scads of C=O=C into the air. The problem is the tundra, because it has so much frozen biomass. Forget the offshore contribution, which is pffft by comparison. So for eastern Siberia, I would respectfully suggest placing 1 megaton nukes on one mile centers. Given that the tundra in that area is around 2,000 miles wide by 800 miles deep, around 1.6 million bombs would be necessary. If you planned it right, you could detonate to control the fallout so that it drifted south toward Mongolia and China, which could solve a lot of C=O=C issues right there and get rid of a huge clathrate issue. Bonus!
