Collapse of critical Atlantic current is no longer low-likelihood, study finds
Scientists say ‘shocking’ discovery shows rapid cuts in carbon emissions are needed to avoid catastrophic fallout

The collapse of a critical Atlantic current can no longer be considered a low-likelihood event, a study has concluded, making deep cuts to fossil fuel emissions even more urgent to avoid the catastrophic impact.

The Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (Amoc) is a major part of the global climate system. It brings sun-warmed tropical water to Europe and the Arctic, where it cools and sinks to form a deep return current. The Amoc was already known to be at its weakest in 1,600 years as a result of the climate crisis.

The Atlantic meridional overturning circulation is
weakening and has collapsed in the distant past

Scientists have warned previously that Amoc collapse must be avoided “at all costs”. It would shift the tropical rainfall belt on which many millions of people rely to grow their food, plunge western Europe into extreme cold winters and summer droughts, and add 50cm to already rising sea levels.

All due to greenhouse emissions from fossil fuels... The Greenland ice sheet must be dissolving... What will become of our Atlantic hurricanes?

I’d like to see the sophisticated instruments that they used 1600 years ago to measure the AMOC currents.

These a-holes are simply liars for hire.

There is virtually ZERO CO₂ in the atmosphere.

(compare to the 99% of Nitrogen and Oxygen)
