Except Britain and the rest of northwestern Europe. It's going to be plunged into an ice age by the collapse of the gulf stream.

Your point is correct, but it’s the slowing of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, or AMOC, that’s the real problem. The Gulf Stream is just a part of its system.

Yeah, all the people who lose their houses probably won't want new ones.

It can only be a good thing. Think of all that ice!
