Climate scientists are calling on Nordic ministers to take urgent action to prevent significant changes in the Atlantic Ocean current, which play a critical role in moderating the climate.
The potential collapse of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation could result in abrupt changes in weather patterns, particularly threatening for countries in the Arctic region and Europe.
The scientists highlight the lack of sufficient global efforts to mitigate this potential disaster, alluding to the need for robust international policies aimed at reducing greenhouse gas emissions.
