"Currently, nutrient inputs seem to be creating just the right conditions for #seagrasses. But if nutrients continue to increase, there is a risk that the seagrasses will be outcompeted by #seaweeds and smothered... the future of this Maldivian success story may therefore largely lie in our hands."

1) the loss of the #Greenland ice sheet,

2) the demise of the West #Antarctic #IceSheet,

4) the abrupt thaw of large areas of #Arctic #permafrost +

5) the slowing of an #Ocean current known as the #NorthAtlanticSubpolarGyre."

"Other #TippingPoints include
