By any stretch of the imagination, this is not fresh news. The Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) has been observed to be slowing for several years now, and the consequences of losing the cooling properties of the oceans have been long established.

Is it too late to do anything to prevent mass extinction? Have enough tipping points been breached that render a reversal impossible?

James Burke talked about this in the documentary "After the Warming" back in 1989. https://youtu.be/451xJqNGFqU?t=2943
