Arctic scientist warns of dangerous climate change | Australian University News & Information Service
Professor Duarte said the Arctic region contained arguably the greatest concentration of potential tipping elements for global climate change.
"If set in motion, they can generate profound climate change which places the Arctic not at the periphery but at the core of the Earth system," Professor Duarte said. "There is evidence that these forces are starting to be set in motion."
"This has major consequences for the future of human kind as climate change progresses."
