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.

    Surely the circulation will increase in power and shift to different places. The circulation of water isn’t going to just stop, right?

      Yes, it’s this current that’s stopping

      Not water as a whole

      Yes, collapse here is a fear mongering term, because it makes you think the current will stop without actually saying the word “stop.” It’s just shifting. Changing. We are in the process of coming out of an ice age. Things gonna be moving.
