    Does it mean, for instance, Europe will have the same temperature than Canada and north of US (same latitude)? Without speaking about all the other dramatic effects…

      Basically, yes, winters in Europe are mild bcz of the ocean currents. England, in particular, will start having seriously cold winters. The weather will also no longer be stable if this happens.

      Well, as a Finn I am not too keen, our weather will turn to Siberian style winter…

      But because the heat doesn’t move, some parts might become so hot that nothing lives there.
