how much fresh, cold water would have to be put into the atlantic ocean via the melting of ice to cause a change to the 'conveyer belt of the atlantic' that takes warmer tropical water, brings it up next to the western coast of europe, including the UK to a point whereby the western coast of europe and the UK will experience famine as a result of colder weather?
for example, must all of the north pole melt? how much ice is on greenland that would cause this to happen? wouldn't much of greenland's melted ice just flow as water into the ground?
how many icebergs must melt?
is there change that all of the ice on antarctica would melt? how much climate change would melt all of that ice, and what would the result be down under the equator?
