Gulf Stream collapse could start by 2060, Dutch researchers warn (nltimes.nl)

The Gulf Stream, a system of ocean currents that plays a crucial role in the climate, may reach an irreversible point of collapse much sooner than previously thought. Previously, scientists thought the point of no return for the Gulf Stream would happen after 2100. Now, a group of Dutch climate scientists has concluded that the tipping point may happen around 2060, NOS reports.

“What this study makes concrete is that we have a year for the start of the Gulf Stream collapse, around 2060,” researcher René van Westen of Utrecht University told the broadcaster. “That is alarmingly closer than previously thought, possibly even within our lifetime.”

note : Just now I realized, there was a misunderstanding from the media. The publication was clearly talking about AMOC collapse, not Gulf Stream, while Gulf Stream is part of AMOC.

There was a study from PNAS about the SMOC slowing and reversing recently as well. 2060 seems awfully far away with the way things are accelerating.

I agree, 2060 is obviously a long way off, while there are already many climate disasters ongoing and many of them are under-reported.
