“the tipping point that makes an Amoc shutdown inevitable is likely to be passed within a few decades, but that the collapse itself may not happen until 50 to 100 years later”

Long enough that everyone who got us into the mess will be dead and won’t have to suffer the consequences or admit they were wrong. 😑

There could be a one-day delay and those responsible would not suffer consequences.
