Researchers have predicted the collapse of the AMOC could happen any time between 2025 and 2095 — far sooner than previous predictions, although not all scientists are convinced.

Thanks for this write up and the Popper reference!

You're welcome.

Feel free to come back if you want to talk about Popper more. His work can be quite difficult to read. Some paragraphs/chapters read smoothly, then others are very technical. It might be worth having a quick look into 'hypothetical deductive methodology' for an overview of Popper's main idea before tackling him directly.

It might also help to know that his theory comes from his anti-communism. So when he's talking about the problems of prediction and historicism, he's challenging the Marxist method (poorly, IMO, but I won't get into why, here, unless you want to talk about it).
