In a recent open letter, researchers warned that a warmer Arctic could lead to cold waves across Northern Europe - due to "complex feedback mechanisms".
According to Forschung & Wissen here, an international group of renowned scientists recently published an open letter (PDF) stating that the melting of ice in the Arctic could disrupt ocean currents in the Atlantic, and thus have "devastating and irreversible impacts especially for Nordic countries, but also for other parts of the world."
According to their publication in the journal Nature Communications, October 2024, doi: 10.1038/s41467-024-53401-3, melting of sea ice during the last interglacial significantly impacted the density and salinity of seawater, and thus led to significant changes in ocean currents and heat distribution in the oceans.
The researchers looked at sediment cores collected in the North Sea and reconstructed surface temperatures and salinity and found that these processes have led to a significant drop in temperature in northern Europe.
According to Mohamed Ezat: "Our discovery that the increased melting of Arctic sea ice in the Earth's past probably led to significant cooling in northern Europe is alarming."
He adds: "The impacts particularly on Nordic Countries would likely be catastrophic, including major cooling in the region while surrounding regions warm. This would be an enlargement and deepening of the 'cold blob' that already has developed over the subpolar Atlantic Ocean and likely lead to unprecedented extreme weather."

So, how scared are we?
"Recognizing that adaptation to such a severe climate catastrophe is not a viable option, we urge the Council of Nordic Ministers to (a) initiate an assessment of this significant risk to the Nordic countries and (b) take steps to minimize this risk as much as possible. This could involve leveraging the strong international standing of the Nordic countries to increase pressure for greater urgency and priority in the global effort to reduce emissions as quickly as possible, in order to stay close to the 1.5 °C target set by the Paris Agreement."

So, there is it. Again. Business as usual.
Same BS, now adding just another 'super threat / severe climate catastrophe ' in order to accelerate the green agenda scam via (even) greater urgency "reducing emissions".
Oh man... Scandinavia / Sweden, always just so "best in test" (green brainwash).
This is what Scandinavia really is: "Among the most perfectly corrupted countries in the world. So perfectly implemented at most levels, that it has become invisible. Barely any citizen calling it in question.
*rolling my eyes to heaven*
Dr Hans Joachim Schellnhuber , founder of the Potzdam institute for Climate change. The same guy who didn't even peer review a paper about "Red Lines / Tipping Points ", but it wasn't meant to be done either - only as an hypothetical idea.
He was the only one who talked about those “red lines” in an internal paper. Today’s “climate” science and media notoriously refer wrongly to these unproven, entirely hypothetically made up “red lines”. (Tipping points)"
Schellnhuber was the German Advisory Council on Global Change. The Potzdam Institute for Climate Change today, which happens to employ one of Sweden's notorious climate change scare mongerers Johan Rockström. That dude is not even a climate scientist, but instead specialized on soil science and hydrology, as well agriculture.
I don't know how often that dude in Sweden has lied and scared people in the media - i lost counts. Until he suddenly got employed at the Potzdam Institute in Germany, in order to plow his way further up the ladder of climate scam narratives.
Wikipedia lists among other things, that he is now also member of the European Investment Bank Advisory Group. Well, that's really fitting...
too funny - it must be you!

it's you....
Welcome back if I may say - and I'm most interested in Australia!
Sweden as well - didn't they do a root cause analysis on the recent pipeline incident - was that not transparent?
Agree or not?
