Re: Off the Planet (none / 0)
  1. Never trust a trailer. Nor, for that matter, a science-related press release.

  2. The surface currents are well described, and heating the Arctic does pose a risk that surface currents might be disrupted. AFAIK, it is a risk that is virtually impossible to meaningfully quantify - but then again, the consequences would be to turn Norway into something more reminiscent of Greenland, so I'm not sure that assigning probabilities is a meaningful exercise anyway...

  3. Ocean currents are complicated phenomena, and they are vital to The World As We Know It. Mess with them at the peril of catastrophic upheavals.
