Four key pillars of the global climate are melting in the heat trapped by rising fossil fuel emissions, a new study has found.
The relatively stable climate that nurtured human civilization depends in large part on these structures: the ice sheets of Greenland and West Antarctica, the Amazon rainforest and the Atlantic currents that warm Europe.
Under current policies, the world faces a scenario in which those pillars have roughly even odds of either surviving or collapsing during the next three centuries, according to results published Thursday in Nature Communications.
The scientists warned that if the pillars are fatally undermined by heat, the resulting damage could prove impossible to undo — even if temperatures are successfully brought down later in the 21st century.
Even so, the long timeline of those findings makes them, if anything, optimistic relative to other recent ones: They come on the heels of a string of disturbing studies about key global systems like the conveyor-belt Atlantic current that keeps Europe temperate, or the West Antarctic Ice Sheet that keeps global sea levels stable.

Better call Saul . . . Elbein.
I’m SO scared !!!
They made up man-made global warming then renamed it climate crisis ,LOL
Horse pucky!
I feel sorry for the Obamas. Their two oceanfront mansions will be underwater soon.
Now everything is held up with pillars ,LOL
I am 1000 times more concerned about communism and socialism than I am about climate change!
BS. Wealth transfer crisis is a better name.
I don’t think you’ll get funding with your model.
Believe nothing, The Hill!!!!
Saw “The Hill”.
Then “Study finds...”
Next article please, hopefully written by someone who actually passed his/her/its (we’re talking journalists, so one never knows) third grade science class.
Watch me care..
These people want money now and they’ll a tell whatever tales they have to to get it
Max out the credit cards and party like it’s 1999!
The “climate models” the Left uses to “prove” their claims don’t even come close to predicting today’s climate when you feed them historical data.
The most accurate “climate model” is the solar cycle, with a 93% accuracy rate, but they refused to use that because it doesn’t give them the answer they want.
There is tremendous arrogance among some people who think they hold power in their hands that can collapse multiple planetary systems. My SUV can destroy the Amazon rainforest. If I eat enough bugs, I can personally save the North Atlantic Current.
We are much more insignificant than these people think. I guess that hurts their ego.
