Climate Extremes

Are we at risk of crossing planetary tipping points? Are we at risk of pushing the planet toward a trajectory where it could unstoppably drift away from a state that can support life as know it? Climate Extremes: At the Abyss? explores these questions, presenting expert perspectives and ongoing scientific research on the rapidly changing Earth system and the rising risk of triggering rapid, non-linear, and even self-reinforcing "vicious cycle" feedbacks in critical planetary systems like the Antarctic and Greenland ice sheets, ocean currents (including the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation, or AMOC), and the Amazon Rainforest.
