AMOC on the Brink: Climate's Undercurrent Crisis

Breaking waves in climate science: A recent study warns the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) could weaken by a staggering 33% by 2040, thanks to relentless greenhouse emissions and ice melt from Greenland and Canada. Since 1950, the AMOC has already declined by 15%, with a 12% drop from 2000-2020 alone. Europe braces for frostier winters and erratic weather, while global ecosystems reel. Scientists urge urgent emission cuts to avoid turning this slow drip into a climate deluge.
