If not for the gulf stream (a constant sea water movement) Europe would be much colder and Northern America much warmer. I wonder if climate warming could potentially stop this gulf stream
The AMOC (Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation) is now creaking under the weight of all that Pacific heat in the ocean. If that goes - which is looking increasingly likely within the next 25-50 years - then sayonara Gulf Stream and Europe can look forward to what’s likely to be extremely sub-zero winter temperatures and soaring summer temperatures.
I’m in the UK and I’ve bought an extra pair of mitts and a hand fan, so I’ll be laughing
What are we talking about when you say extremely sub zero. As in -20c or colder?
Let’s just put it this way. It is what was thought to have triggered previous ice ages.
We have the same cake day!
Very serious topic about dying earth, climate change, etc
“yo we have the same cake day!”
Idk why, but this made me laugh too much
A little whimsy to make the world more bearable. Idk where I heard the advice, but:

It won’t take alien invasions, it won’t take world wars using nukes. It will simply be humans living day to day, consuming and altering everything they cross paths with.
Yep it’s gonna be us destroying ourselves
Went to a concert here in central europe and we endured 45 degrees under the sun, people were fainting and getting naked but they didn’t let us in till after a full hour of late opening.
Surely you meant undressing, not literally naked (no underwear). Imagine the smell of thousand sweaty asscheeks
