Thermal Halide Cycle
From Freepedia
The Thermal Halide Cycle is the cycle that transfers warm salt around the Earth. This cycle is what causes our climate to act the way that it does.
One of the problems that we face today relates with global warming. As the temperature warms, sheets of ice begin to melt. If ice was to melt off of Greenland or parts of Canada to release fresh water into the current that comes up from the Gulf of Mexico, the fresh water would sink slowing down the warm salty current that moves upwards. As it continues to slow, the warm weather that comes off of the current towards Europe would no longer exist. Europe and parts of North America would get thrown into an ice age. The entire worlds climate would be demolished.
