Which option do we choose - act or delay?

These are the 'warning' stripes highlighting global choices. Do we act rapidly and keep global temperatures below 2ยฐC, or delay and end up in a 3ยฐC world (or worse)?

Should lying about climate change be illegal?
Should lying about climate change be illegal? YouTube video by Simon Clark

This year we've been really swinging for the fences.

Our latest video is our biggest one yet, nearly an hour long and involving half a dozen experts.

Asking "Should lying about climate change be illegal?" and, if so, how do we make it so?

Birch Glacier Landslide - AntarcticGlaciers.org The collapse of Birch Glacier and the devastating landslide that impacted the Swiss village of Blatten occurred as a result of supraglacial landslides.

Some thoughts on the #Blatten landslide, drawing heavily on the vital and excellent updates from @subfossilguy.bsky.social and @davepetley.bsky.social

It can feel like we have made no progress in the fight against climate change.

That's not the case.

Happy to be back home in Aberdeen after a semester-long internship at the Alaska Volcano Observatory - University of Alaska Fairbanks. Got a nice sneak peek behind the scenes of volcano monitoring, but it was also lovely to enjoy the wonders of the north again.
