This is a good idea. We should do something similar in the UK. Helps aid awareness and action. Although we'd have to find a suitable name (a "scorcher" is my bid).

Pet Shop Boys on stage. Neil at a microphone on the left, Chris fiddling with keyboards on the right as per their usual formation.
Pet Shop Boys tonight at the Electric Ballroom. Excellent stuff even with some comedy forgetting of lyrics. Sexy Northerner, Your Funny Uncle and Will-o-the-Wisp were the highlights for me. Awesome night.
Well worth a listen to the Eco Chamber podcasts...
Scotland are playing Ivory Coast at Everton's Hill Dickinson Stadium. The pitch is something special as I discovered on this episode of Waterfall. Now all I need is a Scotland equaliser...

I love the "fill it right" challenge. Stalled a bit on level 5! Looking forward to meeting some students on Thursday at Birmingham University to secure some water saving pledges! @ccwvoice.bsky.social
It was magnificent. The place was rocking.
My dad took up curling in his 50s and absolutely loved it. He became treasurer of his club up in Edinburgh. It made me interested in curling- although no clubs for me in Birmingham - and I'm loving the Olympics. Go Team GB!
This does not surprise me in the slightest. With die-hard passionate fans who will brave the legitimised ticket touting system that FIFA have put in place.

Never thought I'd hear the joyful sound of the Hearts song ringing out on BBC Radio 4's Today programme. Loving the feature on Hearts. #HeartsFC #HeartOfMidlothian #Jambos
The snow is essentially their reservoir. This is serious stuff.

Public unhappiness in water companies is reflected in the complains that we recieve at CCW @ccwvoice.bsky.social (the independent consumer watchdog). A surge of this size, a 50% increase in one year, is unprecedented.

There's been a lot of rain, so the perfect time to talk about water saving! Saving water all year round makes sense: cleaning and pumping water is energy (and carbon) intensive, it also keeps stocks topped up for when there is less rain and it can reduce your bills.

At least twenty years ago climate scientists were talking about wetter, milder, UK winters. This is certainly what a wetter winter looks like.

Another good episode of Talking Rubbish.
A couple of points as a Birmingham resident...
1. Birmingham is not dystopian!
2. The strikes affects those with no access to cars to take recycling to the centres - tends to be the least well off. This aspect wasn't discussed.
