The Antarctic Half of the Global Thermohaline Circulation Is Faltering

As I posted in another blog,,

This is only based on ocean harvesting under present conditions.

If what is being said about global warming is true,,and if enough of the ice poles melt to affect the thermohaline circulation, then this could actually happen much sooner.
It's not a question of will it happen, more a question of when.
It's going to be nasty, for the majority of humans survive on the animal protein from the oceans.

A report has found that the Antarctic summer ice melt is now occurring 10 times faster than it did 600 years ago.

Studies of ocean temperatures are revealing that a lot of the excess heat we’re creating by pumping greenhouse gases into the atmosphere is ending up in the oceans.
