Unlike what one imagines about the effect of climate change in Europe, a colder future may be coming in a few days. In recent research, scientists from the University of Copenhagen’s Niels Bohr Institute and Department of Mathematical Sciences forecast that the system of ocean currents that currently distribute heat and cold between the North Atlantic region and tropics will entirely stop if people keep emitting the same levels of greenhouse gases as they do right now.
The Atlantic Ocean current is the driving force which brings warm water from the Gulf of Mexico up to the UK and is responsible for mild winters in Western Europe.
