Gasp Arctic Sea Ice Death Rattle
Paul Beckwith
Elaborating on my last video; I take a cold, hard look at the reality of vanishing Arctic sea-ice. All signs point to an Arctic in collapse. Cold air is flooding out of the Arctic, pushing the jet stream far south, putting North America in a highly variable deep freeze that will be seen in a few years as a “last gasp” Arctic “death rattle”.

Unfortunately,
our climate is highly nonlinear, and we have already crossed
thresholds. The Arctic is the Achilles Heel or lynchpin of the entire
system, and it is undergoing convulsions.
