ABP1/ABL3-TMK1 cell-surface auxin signaling targets PIN2-mediated auxin fluxes for root gravitropism

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.
"We found that the tipping point where the shutdown becomes inevitable is probably in the next 10 to 20 years or so. That is ... why we have to act really fast to cut down emissions,” says @rahmstorf.bsky.social in @theguardian.com's report on a new #AMOC study: www.theguardian.com/environment/...
