This is the place for discussing the potential collapse of modern civilization and the environment.

Collapse, in this context, refers to the significant loss of an established level or complexity towards a much simpler state. It can occur differently within many areas, orderly or chaotically, and be willing or unwilling. It does not necessarily imply human extinction or a singular, global event. Although, the longer the duration, the more it resembles a ‘decline’ instead of collapse.

Yeah I think the concept is that it just gets diluted by melting ice caps until it is essentially stopped. Surprisingly I haven't found anything about plankton and ecological disaster from food web collapse alongside the AMOC.
