National Preparedness Commission
Laurie Laybourn, Director of SCRI wrote for the National Preparedness Commission on our recent paper The security blind spot, Covering the likelihood, uncertainty, and security implications of an AMOC collapse for the UK:
“Recently, something extraordinary happened in the House of Lords. In September, Baroness Jenny Jones, a Green Party peer, submitted a written question to the government. She asked whether it had assessed ‘the effect of any slowing or collapse of the Atlantic Meridional Overturning Circulation (AMOC) on their economic planning’.[1] Jones is only the second person in history to ask the government about the AMOC.”
