I’ve been very much looking forward to this book. #xmasreading #bluemachine #helenczerski

@davidho Great - knowing your other posts, this is exactly NOT a diversion from doing all the other stuff as well... Concerned by news of ocean circulation shifts as well as apparent reduction phytoplankton activity - oooh, its always time to read #BlueMachine again

View of a blue-green tiled table on a terrace overlooking a calm Mediterranean Sea (4-5 degrees warmer than usual this year) through flowered bushes and olive trees. On the table lies the book “Blue Machine” by Helen Czerski: how the ocean shapes our world. Highly recommended reading. Some of the table tiles are very ornate and the one next to the book shows two smiling fish 🐟

“Once we think of the #ocean as a single integrated (…) system, interwoven with our own lives (…), we have the perspective to really see what we’re doing to the #BlueMachine.” Great topical #summerread, kudos to @helenczerski.bsky.social for a fantastic book, ideal to read by the sea 🌊

@helenczerski.bsky.social had you written #BlueMachine when I was 14/15 it may have driven me on to my dream job working on mini-subs for ocean research. But I got diverted by other things and a lack of educational prowess, which I could/should have over come! Hope to meet you one day and thanks!

Yeah, I'm pretty much going to be laughing my head off for the next 4 years, maybe shorter he is rather old, as MAGA registers just exactly what trump is really all about .. 🤣

I've just finished reading Blue Machine by Helen Czerski. It is an excellent read and I've learned so much. The science is fascinating, the human and cultural aspects equally so. Strong recommend. #BlueMachine #Ocean #OccasionalBookRecommendation
