"The #Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation ( #AMOC ), which includes the #GulfStream , stabilizes #climates in the Northern #Hemisphere and beyond.

But a new #climate #model that factors in #freshwater #melt from #Greenland 's #ice sheet has suggested that, at the current rate of #global #carbondioxide #emissions , the current could weaken by as much as one-third in the next 15 years."

A picture that for those of us on the #Northern #Hemisphere who are already missing the sun.
And don't worry, it will return, and we won't even have to make a blood sacrifice! I mean unless you think it'd come back faster?
