Why ocean currents are slowing — and what that means for you | Susan Lozier
Ocean waters are constantly on the move, traveling far distances in complex currents that regulate Earth's climate and weather patterns.

Oceanographer Susan Lozier dives into the data, which suggests that ocean overturning is slowing down as waters gradually warm — and takes us on board the international effort to track these changes and set us on the right course while we still have time.
