It would, obviously, be asking too much for our media and political class to care more about the repeated, state-directed criminal massacres of starving civilians in Gaza than what some rappers say at Glastonbury.

Heatwave in the UK peaking on Monday and Tuesday.
1) Drink water. Stay cool. Check on vulnerable people.
2) You can monitor temperatures hour by hour across the country, and see how much warmer than normal it gets.

Canadian fires in 2023 released more carbon than every country but US/China/India.
Driven by "extreme" temps that will be common in 2050s.
Example of how physical climate hazards may exacerbate carbon emissions, in a self-reinforcing loop. Bad.
#DailyPaper
There is a lot of talk of exascale computers for climate modeling these days. We’ve written something about it 👇🏻
How to apply Applications should be submitted to julie.jebeile@unibe.ch and contain (1) a motivation letter explaining the interest in the topic, (2) a CV, (3) a one-page research statement (excluding references) describing the direction of research the candidate would like to undertake in the context of the project, (4) a writing sample (e.g. a chapter of MA-thesis, approx. 15-20 pages). Two reference letters are expected and should be directly sent by the referees. Review of the applications will start on 15 April 2024 and will continue until the position is filled. Interviews will take place online.
Via Prof. Julie Jebeile: The Institute of Philosophy in Bern invites applications for a 4-year fully funded PhD position in feminist philosophy of climate science, starting 1 September 2024

In this paper we review how the concept of physical climate storyline has been taken up and developed by the physical climate science community and explore ways in which values are made explicit within this approach
Taking a break from my magernity leave to announce that the paper on physical climate storylines I wrote with Liese Coulter, PhD Suraje Dessai Ted Shepherd Bart van den Hurk and Jana Sillmann is now online!

Today is the last day to sign up to attend this conference online. There is no registration fee and a lot of interesting talks on systemic climate risks - from conceptual models to policy applications. Join us!
Dave Stainforth from the Grantham Research Institute at the LSE presenting his book on key issues on predicting our #climate #future amd being serious about merging physical and social science @climatessn.bsky.social @climate.bsky.social
This is happening tomorrow!
Would you like to help climate scientists?
If so, today we launch our latest #WeatherRescue project.
Join other volunteers to transcribe lost weather observations. The mission is to recover pressure measurements taken in Oxford between 1828-1860.

✉️ Some science 🧪 buddies and I have written an open letter to the UK government, strongly opposing their “kicking woke ideology out of science” sentiments, which stand to damage the UK’s scientific standing and ability to deliver for public good.
Please read and consider signing ✍🏻

The extent and unexpectedness of the recent climate extremes raises deep epistemological questions about how model based science can contribute to our preparedness for what is to come. David Stainforth explains some of the difficulties with predicting climate here www.theguardian.com/books/2023/o...

The book combines insights from philosophy, climate science, maths, and economics to introduce key difficulties in anticipating what we can expect from a changing climate. If you are interested in this issue, you can pre-order the book here: global.oup.com/academic/pro...
Hello everyone! As my first post on this platform I would like to share the book launch of Prof David Stainforth on climate prediction. Dave's work has inspired mine since I started working on the epistemology of climate models and their relevance for decision making: www.lse.ac.uk/Events/2023/...
Thank you Alisa! And hello everyone 👋🏻
