Hidden in every tenth of a degree of extra warmth are hair-trigger switches built into Earth systems that are critical for all life.

The article from Earth.com discusses a comprehensive study warning that several major Earth systems crucial for sustaining life are on the brink of total collapse due to global warming and climate change. These systems include the Greenland and West Antarctic ice sheets, warm-water coral reefs, and the North Atlantic Subpolar Gyre circulation. The study, published in Nature Sustainability, indicates that these systems are at risk of reaching tipping points within this century if global temperatures continue to rise. The collapse of these systems could lead to catastrophic and irreversible changes, such as significant sea-level rise, loss of biodiversity, and disruption of ocean currents. The researchers emphasize the urgent need for global action to reduce greenhouse gas emissions and mitigate the impacts of climate change to prevent these dire outcomes.
