Climate change target of 2C is ‘dead’
« Hansen’s group also argues that the accelerated global heating they predict will increase ice melting in the Arctic.
“As a result, shutdown of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (#APOC) is likely within the next 20-30 years, unless actions are taken to reduce global warming – in contradiction to conclusions of IPCC. »

From the article:
“As a result, shutdown of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (Amoc) is likely within the next 20-30 years, unless actions are taken to reduce global warming – in contradiction to conclusions of IPCC.
“If Amoc is allowed to shut down, it will lock in major problems including sea level rise of several metres – thus, we describe Amoc shutdown as the ‘point of no return’.”
