    That gulf stream study is just 1 study. Hardly 100% reliable. Unless its repeatable.

    Also they say 2057 or so, was most likely

    You misread the news, gulf stream is not collapsing, - it’s one of the small adjacent streams (very small in comparison with gulf). Still bad news though

    To be fair it was just one study made by some fellow Danes… We’re known for being drunk at all times haha. Jk. But yeah its one single study and I know it’s been contested by other people in the field. Not saying the Barbie movie deserves so much attention, but then again I wouldn’t know since I haven’t seen it. Or read any of the articles about it. It’s just not something that piques my interest.

    ELI5 I know what the gulf stream is, but what will that do to civilization?

      Nothing. The rich will be rich, the poor will be poor, a few billion will die, and the PS7 will get released.

      Business as usual.

        We’re in an ice age. This is pure pedantry but the correct term is glaciation.

        But with climate change the earth will never experience another glaciation. It’ll simply never get cold enough on it’s own.

      That is such a non-story, too. I followed this when it first came to light back in June. r/UFOs hit the front page of reddit, and it was some “big news” that was forthcoming as reported by The Debrief. They ran like a several minute teaser for what was supposed to be an hours-long interview, and it turned out Grusch is just another “trust me bro, there’s aliens” “whistleblower.” There is no evidence in sight, as much as I wish there were.

        A lot of the proof is classified so he’s only able to tell it to members of Congress with the proper security clearance. That’s just the shitty way the US government is run, we’re not allowed to know anything.

          If they were serious about it they’d have held the hearing in a secure environment. It’s a dog-and-pony show.
          Edit: Also, probably for reasons stated by another commenter I replied to.
