I've heard (I can't remember where) that although tanks can move through peat bogs and swamps, the trucks that are needed to supply them with gasoline and munitions can't. Russia may therefore be constrained to invade before things warm up and the support vehicles don't have hard snow and ice to drive on. So a sped-up invasion schedule may be a consequence of global warming.

It might be also that bogs and fens stay frozen in Ukraine perhaps into March.
