In the interests of providing ‘a variety of opinions’ I’ve added two naysayer articles to complement the AMOC doom ones
I’m not particularly impressed with the two articles by Watts — they both do cite interesting articles from Jan 2025 / Feb 2025 Nature but one should just go read those I think. I’ll link in a second. Blathering about how bad models are then backing your point up with links to meta-analysis by the CMIP6 committee, comparing 24 different coupled ESM models, because you know your readers won’t bother to actually read the evidence and accept your knuckle-drag simplistic take at face value… we’ll I won’t say it won’t build you readership for your Denial Grift but … um…
Continued Atlantic overturning circulation even under climate extremes | Nature (Feb 2025)
Preface to an interesting Orthodox Christian take on the ecological crisis as rooted in the desacralization of Nature (a theme that Sherrard as a Traditionalist, though with his differences from Guenon due to being an Eastern Orthodox Christian, he takes from that school) — and intro to his work:
One thing we no longer need to be told is that we are in the throes of a crisis of the most appalling dimensions. We tend to call this crisis the ecological crisis, and this is a fair description in so far as its effects are manifest in the ecological sphere. For here the message is quite clear: our entire way of life is humanly and environmentally suicidal, and unless we change it radically there is no way in which we can avoid catastrophe. Without such change the whole adventure of civilization will come to an end during the lifetime of many now living.
Sherrard, Nasr, Dugin make an interesting succession of Traditionalists on this topic.

Interesting framing: ‘AGW is actually a mental health issue’
It’s not really a ‘mental health problem’ if you believe ‘we are so totally fucked. bummer.’
It’s a realistic and useful adaptation
