One in four properties may be at risk of flooding by 2050 - report Climate change could increase flood threats without improvements to defences, the Environment Agency warns.

By 2050 25% of UK homes at risk of flooding. This story has missed the main headlines today, but improved modelling and revised impacts of CC lead to a major increase in areas flagged at risk from flooding. It’s due to better diagnosis - AND - climate change.

Is the world 1.3°C or 1.5°C warmer? Historical ship logs hold answers Diverging estimates of 19th century ocean temperatures drive uncertainty over global warming

When Earth's temperature breaches +1.5/+2C depends on our emission choices and on the T during the pre-industrial era. Due to changes in the way we have measured ocean T through time (tinyurl.com/3trsfbrj) pre-industrial T is uncertain. Palaeoclimate offers a way to reduce this uncertainty (1/2) 🧪⚒️🌊
