And no, this drought has been here for quite some time now, you building greenhouses or no greenhouses, to 'solve' it.

and with it you're taking your last groundwater, emptying aquifers.

A world where the herd is becoming unruly, starting to stampede, attacking governments. Your 'elders' so incompetent and so unable to act on it, partially because of yourself and your own expectations of your future. Those reelections you know. and those pledges, promises, and incompetence.

Searching for autocratic leaders, those promising you the world. Ignoring and deriding people that acts for this world. All about being human but little about intelligence.

And as I expect. Neither will you once 2040 is here, and even less your kids. All presuming no wars before it, which is another implausible scenario looking at us.

The AMOC and northern Europe

2025   https://edition.cnn.com/2025/06/11/climate/ocean-currents-amoc-collapse-extreme-cold

then some criticism of the conclusions drawn, as done by media primary

https://www.sciencemediacentre.org/expert-reaction-to-modelling-study-on-the-impact-of-a-weakened-amoc-on-the-european-climate/

But they forgot, or ignored?         

2023   https://www.whoi.edu/press-room/news-release/first-observational-evidence-of-beaufort-gyre-stabilization-could-be-precursor-to-huge-freshwater-release/

and 2025

https://eos.org/research-spotlights/the-uncertain-fate-of-the-beaufort-gyre

https://agupubs.onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/10.1029/2024JC021873

together with the Arctic ice disappearing, f.ex according to one study quadrupling the ice melt of Greenland under a 2.7C warming, where the Arctic already is warming up around four times faster that our global average.
