Wow 😍

This is happening, right now.
The great "arribada" (arrival) of mother Olive Ridley sea turtles on the Odisha coast, where they dig sand-nests & lay their eggs, driven by ancient instinct.
Heart-lifting, magnificent, moving: part of a geography of hope.

Sorry, that seemed like I was celebrating your hack, I was celebrating your presence here 😂

OMG only seeing this now 🥳

Say all together now:

"STATE-OF-THE-ART CLIMATE MODELS SHOW WARMING STOPS ONCE WE STOP EMITTING CARBON"

So, "There's still time to stop the worst impacts of climate change."

Thank you! Good luck with the writing. The more evidence of these failures the better. Nothing more than greenwashing, as your chart clearly demonstrates.

Thanks for reposting. I read it this morning. Brilliant article.

Post-growth: the science of wellbeing within planetary boundaries There are increasing concerns that continued economic growth in high-income countries might not be environmentally sustainable, socially beneficial, or economically achievable. In this Review, we expl...

Excited to announce this new article, a comprehensive review of recent research on post-growth — the science of wellbeing within planetary boundaries. Published in the Lancet Planetary Health with a brilliant team of authors. www.thelancet.com/journals/lan...

I just read it this morning. Fantastic work. How you all managed to get such a comprehensive review into one article is a feat in itself. Thank you and your co-authors!

Bloody hell. I knew it was bad but this is (all too predictably) depressing. Would you have a link to where this is published? My students need to see this!

Wind observation map for Ireland, shared by Met Eireann.

Infrared satellite image from meteologix.com showing the satellite image of Storm Éowyn.

Conceptual model of a sting jet from Schultz & Browning (2017) (https://doi.org/10.1002/wea.2795).

Storm #Éowyn has set new wind speed records for Ireland as potential sting jet hits the west coast (mean wind 37.5 m/s & gust 50.8 m/s).

The location of the maximum winds and the satellite appearance of #Éowyn match with the conceptual model of a sting jet.

I understand that ChatGPT is down and fortunately this is not a problem for me as I have spent considerable time developing a local language model that I am able to run autonomously, fuelled by pastis and duck rillettes.

Oh just your average 140 mph wind gust (max over ocean) 938 mb storm, clocking Ireland Friday morning.
It may end up being an all-time min low pressure record for that area.

Genuine lol! At least we have black humour as a consolation.

Storm #Eowyn is being forecast as one of the most intense wind storms to hit Ireland.
We will have to wait for attribution studies to assess what role #climate change did or didn’t play.
By coincidence I have been reading papers on current impacts of AMOC slowdown. 🧵

Brilliant satirical cover from Private Eye, mocking spineless media organisations and journalists who submit and cower in the face of power 👏

Screencap showing the jump from Oct 4 to 15

In 1582, a papal bull introduced the Gregorian calendar, still used today by most of the world. Because it’s 11 days ahead of the Julian calendar, countries introducing it simply skipped a third of October, and if you scroll back far enough in the iPhone calendar app you can see it change

OK, by popular demand... here's my rendition of what I call "The Offramp". It's the virtuous circle antidote to the vicious cycle of the Doom Loop. It *starts* with social movements for economic and political justice. So, grab a pitch fork, and let the billionaire class know we're coming!

Beautiful shot of the Christmas Eve birb.

That’s such a lovely way of looking at it 🥰

It’s so random! 😂

True. It remains to be reported how he fares. Will wait with interest.

Time to add this to the old out-of-office reply!

Or the source of entertainment during these winter days.

Indeed. The devotion will help pass the time.

A brown and tan squirrel is caught by the golden sunlight. He is upright with food in his hands. There are blurry trees in the background.

Just having a morning munch...

Excellent birbs.

A pyrrhic victory if ever there was one. Also, someone needs to tell him that feelings are not facts.
