Ice age ahead will sink us if we kill current of life

Article Abstract:

An analysis of what could happen if global warming manages to slow or completely shut down the Gulf Stream, an ocean current. It is suggested that if the Gulf Stream were to be shut down, if the evidence of events 13,000 years ago is any indicator, then Europe would be locked into a vicious winter and the Middle East would be hit by a scorching drought that could last up to 1,000 years.
