The missing knowledge is not primarily natural science. Political and social science must come to the fore to help develop effective responses to tipping events.

Although much of the ocean’s abyss seems dark, still and silent, water is nevertheless always flowing, and in specific directions. Much of this water cools as it flows towards the poles, becoming denser and sinking to the ocean floor. Vast, slow currents called conveyors help create and govern the climate we experience.

These early thinkers were Thales (5) who created natural philosophy and theorized that seismological events such as earthquakes had a natural cause (correct) but assumed (wrongly) that landmasses were giant rafts that reacted to ocean ripples which caused the quakes. He was wrong about this too but Anaximander had another idea.
