Or should we?
The adult decision would be to harden and ruggedize everything everywhere; proof against hot and cold.

Abstract
It is well established that a collapse or strong reduction of the Atlantic meridional overturning circulation (AMOC) would substantially cool the northern high latitudes. Here we show that there is a possibility that such cooling could be amplified under deliberate CO2 removal and result in a temporary undershoot of a targeted temperature level.
The problem is the time lag between the climate's cycles and any political response. As Marshall McLuhan said, we proceed into the future with our eyes on the rear-view mirror.
