    Full article: https://archive.ph/2024.08.23-021803/https://www.newscientist.com/article/2444394-part-of-the-atlantic-is-cooling-at-record-speed-and-nobody-knows-why/

    “Nobody knows why?” ah come on, there are plenty of scientist researches and theories, explaining exactly this scenario. For the tl;dr group: rewatch “the day after tomorrow”! (But not this fast and dramatically).

        Sure but it’s all about climate change. The melting ice floods the ocean.
