URGENT: MORE EVIDENCE TO PROVE AMOC IS WEAKENING

Please read this post I wrote today on the Geoshift X profile:

@SunWeatherMan discussed a very important article in this update, titled ‘Phase Transition in the Atlantic Surface Currents’. It found a change occurred in 2009 where the ACDM (Atlantic Convergence and Divergence Mode) – a structure within AMOC which is responsible for water exchange – is shown to have weakened. Research shows this is due to atmospheric changes affecting ocean currents.

Again, we should be moving to make AMOC and the geomagnetic pole shift matters of public interest and national security as Iceland did last year. Doing this would allow for us to allocate money from our national budgets towards developing a transparent national and global strategy to identify risk and areas of vulnerability, make our infrastructure more robust, and also gather/stock important resources.

Public awareness must be raised. We need one another. If we can simultaneously work towards lasting peace in Ukraine and Gaza, and also disclosures of many kinds which are progressed via the provision of universal amnesty on the basis of many mitigating circumstances, we stand a chance of enduring this planetary transition and thriving thereafter.

Not doing this risks global conflict and the safety, wellbeing, and survival of many. We risk abrupt weather events, seismic activity, crop issues, droughts, etc. for which we are unprepared.

Quote from Abstract: “Moreover, this step-like shift in AMOC also suggests the important role of atmospheric disturbances and reveal that AMOC may be more delicate and closer to tipping point than than previously anticipated. These findings confirm that AMOC variability can trigger rapid, large-scale transitions in surface circulation, pushing it into a new, weaker phase.”
