This Is Bad !!!

Crucial ocean system could be collapsing—which would have catastrophic effects

Story at a glance

  • The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), a current system that transports warm water to northern regions of the Atlantic, is showing signs of degradation.
  • Interruptions in the AMOC’s warm water delivery could cause massive weather changes due to an excess of cooler temperatures, impacting regions from Africa to the Amazon rainforest.
  • Some researchers believe the changes in the AMOC are linked to climate change.”

Global Warming/Climate Change has arrived

Western North American extreme heat virtually impossible without human-caused climate change

“During the last days of June 2021, Pacific northwest areas of the U.S. and Canada experienced temperatures never previously observed, with records broken in many places by several degrees Celsius. Multiple cities in the U.S. states of Oregon and Washington and the western provinces of Canada recorded temperatures far above 40ºC (104 ºF), including setting a new all-time Canadian temperature record of 49.6ºC in the village of Lytton. Shortly after setting the record, Lytton was largely destroyed in a wildfire [1,2]. The exceptionally high temperatures led to spikes in sudden deaths, and sharp increases in hospital visits for heat-related illnesses and emergency calls [3,4,5]. Heatwaves are one of the deadliest natural hazards and this heatwave affected a population unaccustomed and unprepared for such extreme temperatures, for instance with most homes lacking air-conditioning [6]. Currently available mortality estimates of at least several hundred additional deaths are almost certainly an underestimate. The full extent of the impact of this exceptional heat on population health will not be known for several months.”
