It appears the AMOC tipping point has happened.

At a time when the Nordic countries are attending a meeting in Iceland discussing the implications of the AMOC shutdown. The papers discussed admit they do not know if a drop of 1.2 or 2.5 degrees c will be the temps. required to cause the domino effect caused by the AMOC shutdown. But the consequences are well known , with ice sheets possibly reaching the top of Scotland. Drought occurring as the rain bands move south along with the global food production ,which will have to follow. IE the likes of Spain are now suffering a great drought along with portions of North America, with floods occurring in the Sahara Desert. This is happening now not in some future date, so have the scientist discussing an event which is happening in real time, as the Greenland cold blob seems to be expanding?
If this effect is happening now then are we not one cold winter away from an Albedo effect which will trigger a cascade of events. Can we now see this in the geological political events as , the Countries that will be most effected jockey for influence in countries further south?

Hard to understand why a 1 degree temp difference is a problem. Temp fluctuations are much more than 1 or 2 degrees from day to night and from season to season. 😀

I found the letter: Open Letter by Climate Scientists to the Nordic Council of Ministers it's pdf.

The lead Oceanographer, Stefan Rahmstorf, also wrote an article for the Guardian, We don’t know where the tipping point is

The tipping point is when it happens. The question being has it happened or at least has started to happen slowly at first and then suddenly like so many things.
