"The dangers of a collapse of the main Atlantic Ocean circulation, known as
Amoc, have been “greatly underestimated” and would have devastating and
irreversible impacts, according to an open letter released at the weekend by 44
experts from 15 countries. One of the signatories, Stefan Rahmstorf, an
oceanographer and climatologist who heads the Earth system analysis department
at the Potsdam Institute for Climate Impact Research in Germany, explains here
why he has recently upgraded his risk assessment of an Amoc breakdown as a
result of global heating – and what that means for Britain, Europe and the
wider world."
