Antarctica's remote and mysterious current has a profound influence on the climate, food systems and Antarctic ecosystems. Can we stop it weakening by 2050?

The Antarctic Circumpolar Current (ACC), the most powerful ocean current on Earth, is slowing down due to the rapid melting of Antarctic ice sheets. Scientists project a 20% slowdown by 2050, a shift that could disrupt global climate patterns,

Scientists warn that the Antarctic Circumpolar Current is slowing down due to climate change. This could lead to sea level rise and ocean warming. The current might slow by around 20 percent by 2050,
