Why Abrupt Climate Response Is a Game
Check out Jean-Marc Jancovici on what might lead us to think the Gulf Stream will stop with some nice grounding in why no one is sure exactly what might happen.   Check out the whole site on the range of things that could happen.
 The bottom-line take-away is that the environment will change. Like a school exercise, I’m going to simplify your life and tell you which changes to assume will occur. To keep things interesting and because there is no certainty, the assumptions will change periodically. With luck we’ll come up with structural changes we can make now that will help us survive later (& not cost too much if things don’t change drastically.)
