A recent climate model suggests that the AMOC (a system of streams in the Atlantic Ocean) might collapse with catastrophic consequences for humanity. Temperatures in Europe might drop by 30 degrees Celsius within a century, while the tropics will become hotter than today, destroying the Amazon rain forests once and for all.
However, there seem to be many "ifs", "buts" and uncertainties with this report, so I suppose we aren´t entirely deep-freezed just yet...
