Gulf Stream weakening

The current that drives the Gulf Stream has weakened by 30% over the last twelve years, evidently due to global warming (I prefer to say global climate change). The effect of this change may be cooling rather than warming, and "the final impact of any cooling effect will depend on whether it outweighs the global warming that, paradoxically, is driving it."
