Researchers have predicted the collapse of the AMOC could happen any time between 2025 and 2095 — far sooner than previous predictions, although not all scientists are convinced.

What if…
And they know how to fucking fix it but don’t want to
It’d be like if in the movie Armageddon the government just said “Eh let’s see if it really will be that bad if it hits us”
“We could do something about the asteroid, but think of the harm doing something could do to the shareholders!?”
Only “they” is actually “us”. We voted those clowns into office. We knew (or should have known, the information was available) better at least since the 1970s.
Yes, there’s a group of people who would rather make members who vote a certain way sad than save their own lives. I don’t get it
IDK, I mean we know it’s to do with carbon but we don’t really know how to stop producing that in a timely manner.
Carbon is causing global warming. We know how to fix global warming because we are causing it, we just have to stop doing it.
This article is about global cooling which is bizarre and not something we expected would be happening. We haven’t got a clue why it’s doing that. It maybe natural, or it maybe it’s something we’ve done in a complicated way, but we don’t know so we don’t know how to fix it.
If this is just an ice age why may as well burn all the coal now to try and stave it off.
Although in reality I think this needs a lot more research before we do anything because this announcement makes no sense within our current understanding of the environmental science.
