While it was already known that the AMOC was at its slowest in 1,600 years, the latest research puts the collapse much closer to between 2025 and 2095, with a central estimate of 2057. If proven correct, this scenario could lead to a 5 to 10 degree drop in temperatures in Europe, with devastating consequences for life as we know it. The Conversation sat down with physicist Peter Ditlevsen and his sister, statistician Susanne Ditlevsen, to reveal the findings, which have sparked controversy in some quarters.
