Damn, if that causes "extreme cold", wouldn't that cure "globull warming"???Half the population of the earth would be affected.

Scientists fear a critical Atlantic Ocean system might collapse, triggering 'extreme cold' and sea level rise
Scientists are worried the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC), a "critical aquatic conveyer belt" that drives currents in the Atlantic Ocean, is at risk of near-complete collapse due to climate change, The Washington Post reports.
A shutdown of the crucial circulation system could "bring extreme cold to Europe and parts of North America, raise sea levels along the U.S. East Coast, and disrupt seasonal monsoons that provide water to much of the world," the Post reports. The effects, in short, would be devastating.
Scientists previously believed the AMOC would in fact weaken this century, but didn't imagine total collapse within the next 300 years except in absolute worst-case warming scenarios. Now, according to a new study, that critical threshold "is most likely much closer than we would have expected," said Niklas Boers, the study's author and a researcher at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research. Any exact date, however, is still unknown.
LOL.. Dam building in Charleston?
The movement of this air prevents pollution from accumulating too much, regulates temperatures, brings atmospheric moisture (rain) to the land masses of the north, etc.
If it stopped, the impact would beggar belief.

Such an event would have catastrophic consequences around the world, severely disrupting the rains that billions of people depend on for food in India, South America and West Africa; increasing storms and lowering temperatures in Europe; and pushing up the sea level in the eastern North America. It would also further endanger the Amazon rainforest and Antarctic ice sheet.

Facts are absolutely useless against the mind of a left winger.
I love all of that future stuff. I use to read Popular Mechanics and Popular Science every month with other magazines. Telling us about future science and things we live with. A lot has not happened. a lot was invested in but nothing from it. An example was that people who used shingles on their roofs. There was supposed to be shingles mixed in with solar panel technology to help power a home. Nothing from it. Or perhaps there is that but somebody will not become insanely rich. Then we have different politicians pushing different new energy technologies while denying others. W. Bush started hydrogen power for vehicles and other ways of living. Then the Progs came to power and stopped it for their agendas. So now the Progs want batteries. Currently they are promoted as clean on the surface but what lies beneath.
THE SKY IS FALLING!!!Half the population of the earth would be affected.
