Sure I DM you
A further update on bsky.app/profile/bobk... — it turns out if you correct the statistical errors in Michael Schellenberger’s favorite new sea level paper, it (unsurprisingly) shows clear evidence of sea level acceleration
I look forward to being auditioned by the Dutch parliament on Monday
Het is tijd om miljardairs te belasten!
1. This short thread is about the issue that dominates almost every aspect of politics, and causes or exacerbates most of our problems: the extreme wealth of a small number of people. Here’s the amazing thing: almost the entire political class aligns with the ultra-rich against the rest. 🧵1/10
Brilliant essay in The Guardian by Cory Doctorow, about why AI will fail and how while doing so it will make everything worse for everbody except the oligarchs. www.theguardian.com/us-news/ng-i...
France : démocratie en décrochage
Rapport #LDH #FIDH | France : démocratie en décrochage
Le constat est sans appel, les libertés publiques connaissent une régression profonde et structurelle en France.
↪️ Les autorités françaises doivent urgemment garantir les droits et libertés de toutes et tous.

If you're in the Netherlands (or have a VPN I guess), and would like to know more about our current. #Antarctic fieldwork, sea level rise and how we make projections@bureaubuitenland.bsky.social has a piece about us today, filmed in the field the last 2 weeks...

it’s honestly incredible to hear a mayor talk like this about transportation and the harm that comes from cars

Screenshot that says "Sea Ice Today" and "Ice Sheets Today" Services Reduced. More information is stated: "Beginning October 15, 2025, NSIDC’s Sea Ice Today and Ice Sheets Today services will be reduced because of non-renewed funding. This means no new monthly and mid-month analysis posts for Sea Ice Today or regular posts for Ice Sheets Today, limited comparison tools, and reduced user support."
UGH! When will it end. 😭
"Effective October 15, 2025, due to non-renewed funding, NSIDC has suspended or reduced several Sea Ice Today tools and services."

Future atmospheric and ocean warming over the 21st century might be larger than previously expected based on a new study by @linusvogt.bsky.social
Linus & I developed the idea during Linus research visit with me at @whoi.edu and turned it then into this paper:

He uses statistics like a drunk uses a lamp post, for support rather than illumination.
Je sais pas comment remercier @fabricearfi.bsky.social et toutes celles et ceux qui aujourd'hui tiennent la tranchée face à la déferlante contre notre démocratie.
J'espère que l'entendre aura fait réfléchir nombreux et nombreuses.
Merci.
Parfois c’est ce qui nous est le plus proche que l’on met le plus de temps à voir.

Elle pourrait faire mieux : accélérer sur la sortie des fossiles tout court et ainsi bénéficier des bénéfices climat/sante/biodiversité/indépendance des politiques climatiques.
⚠️ UK Govt has dismissed the Environmental Audit Committee’s call for full bottom trawling bans in marine protected areas, calling it "disproportionate". Despite the evidence showing full bans are the ONLY way to truly protect ocean wildlife 🌊 1/2

New paper out today led by Martin Siegert with about 40 others where we argue that some of the proposed Polar #Geoengineering schemes for ice sheets, sea ice and solar radiation are potentially dangerous and unethical.

Update on this thread: Thanks to the feedback on this thread, I realized the methodological problems with the Voortman and De Vos (2025) paper (which the New York Post heralded as "Rising-sea hysteria debunked") went deeper than I originally realized, and clearly necessitate retraction. 1/
I would love for someone to do an analysis about how an error-ridden paper by unaffiliated researchers in a low-quality journal has gotten such rapid media attention.
⚠️Safe underground carbon storage could reduce warming by 10 times less than previously thought.
New research by @iiasa.ac.at with scientists from @imperialcollegeldn.bsky.social mapped safe areas that can be used for underground carbon storage 🧵

IPCC projections in the mid-1990s of global sea-level change over the next 30 years were remarkably robust - important for confidence in future projections.
The largest disparities were due to underestimated dynamic mass loss of ice sheets

Antarctica's sea level contribution:
Meltwater from Antarctica may "put a lid" of freshwater on the Southern Ocean and thereby trap heat there leading to enhanced melting.

The Israeli government has adopted the double-strike tactic used by Bashar al-Assad in Syria: target a hospital or heavily populated area, then hit it again when rescue workers, reporters and medics turn up, to kill or maim them too. Hideous war crimes piled one upon another.
We figured out a cheap-ish way to make ocean models create Dense Shelf Waters (DSW) on the surface of the Antarctic continental shelf! How?
Fast answer: Ocean surface cells thinner than 1 m!

We are now thinking about generalising this method to the whole world so it can be used for the next IPCC projections and help coastal decision makers around the world rather than only along the Dutch coast.
