#AmocCollapse
"We found that the #TippingPoint where the shutdown becomes inevitable is probably in the next 10 to 20 years or so. That is quite a shocking finding as well and why we have to act really fast in cutting down emissions.”
#AMOC #ClimateCatastrophe
"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."

Snow,
While you are no stranger
You are unusual
In these parts,
At this time,
And I wonder
Are you a welcome visitor
Or an ominous sign?
Do you drop white from the heavens for reasons of beauty,
Or are you laying the foundations for what is to come?

LOL, Younger Dryas occurred 12,000 years ago. You mean a Dansgaard–Oeschger event, of which YD is the most recent. (You are probably confused because you are not a scientist.) D-O events don't normally happen during interglacial periods. But it is the anthropocene now, so... #AMOCcollapse

AMOC Tipping Point Warning system - my interview with Dr René van Westen - game-changing impacts for NW Europe and starting in our life times.
🌊 Europe at the tipping point? Dr Rene van Westen reveals a new #AMOC warning system that could predict drastic climate shifts for NW Europe. 2055 is closer than you think...

PS 3/2: by 'contingent', I mean limited and subject to global change. I can see some European civilisation surviving #AMOCcollapse, but OTOH see human extinction under a Canfield ocean period.

AMOC records are uncertain, as is the tipping point.

Some people hope that #globalwarming and regional cooling due to #amoccollapse might cancel each other out in Europe, but it is just as likely to combine into something worse, with +50°C heat waves in the hot half of the year, -50°C cold waves during the cold half of the year, and incredibly […]

Collapse of Earth’s main ocean water circulation system is already happening: The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, or AMOC, is like a massive ocean conveyor belt that moves warm and cold water around the Atlantic Ocean. It's failing.

AMOC is like a massive ocean circulation conveyor belt that moves warm and cold water around the Atlantic. It's failing, and that's very bad.

"But it is the anthropocene now, so... #AMOCcollapse"

What does this even mean? How can someone sounding so fucking stupid even with Google Search claim to know the education of others?

No its not.

We haven't even got #climate embedded throughout education yet. How long will it be before #AMOCcollapse makes it into the curriculum 🤔

I'd be very interested in how #Thrutopian thought tackles #AMOCCollapse? Do you tell the truth or will it freeze people into inaction.

Its certainly going to be colder.

A number of forecasts also suggest less rainfall for the UK, -40°C winters & 40% less arable land.
