The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) powers the Gulf Stream, regulating global weather and ocean systems. However, climate change, driven by greenhouse gas emissions and Arctic ice melt, is weakening the AMOC. If this critical system collapses by mid-century, it could lead to extreme weather, rising sea levels, and marine ecosystem collapse.

Addressing this crisis requires transitioning to renewable energy, protecting forests, and adopting sustainable agricultural practices. International cooperation is essential to enforce stronger climate policies and finance climate adaptation in vulnerable regions. Meanwhile, individual actions, such as reducing carbon footprints and supporting conservation efforts, also play a vital role in safeguarding our oceans and climate.
