The increase in UK rainfall is largely due to an increase in rain intensity, i.e. the amount that falls on wet days, rather than the number of wet days increasing.

A recent study found that last winter had ~20% more rain because of climate change.

Feel like having a role in "The sword in the Stone" 🦸‍♀️ when I finally could drag out my garden fork after 6 months frozen in the ground. 🌱

Here's what everyone needs to know* about climate change: 🌍 It's real 👥 It's human-caused ⚠️ It's serious 💡 With immediate action, it's solvable ⌛ Later is too late * social science shows these msgs increase acceptance of the issue, awareness of the risk and, most importantly, willingness to act.

For April Fools' Day, I was going to suggest a ridiculous CO₂ removal (CDR) method but everything I’ve come up with has already been proposed as a real solution.

The annual sea-ice maximum in the Arctic was reached on March 11th with an ice extent of 15.05 million km².
This is about 0.5 million km² less than average (1981-2010).

This is what 30 million tonnes of ice looks like. This is how much ice is melting in Greenland every single hour.

The Arctic sea-ice extent is still increasing for this winter season. And with the forecast of temperatures being rather cold in regions of the ice edge, it will be interesting to see when we land on the annual maximum this year. 🧪⚒️

Hi Sam, I'm wondering if it is possible to save the map with the polar projection? I can only get the full-globe map when saving but I might do something wrong.

The record is no surprise, but worth noting that the 12-month average temperature anomaly is now 1.56 C above the pre-industrial level.

Only a decade ago, this rich wildlife habitat didn't exist. It's already brimming with diverse plant, insect, and bird life, and it'll only keep getting better. Mass rewilding is THE primary solution to nature loss in Ireland. Why are we so painfully slow in making it happen? 🌏

The Antarctic monthly sea-ice extent for February 2024 landed among the 3 lowest on record, behind 2023 and very close to 2017. Nowhere, does sea ice in Feb 2024 seem to fall outside the 30-year mean contour. Except the A23 iceberg that is seen northeast of the Antarctic peninsula 🧊😀 🧪⚒️

It is pretty safe to say that Antarctic sea ice has reached its annual minimum extent (on Febr 20th). The 2024 minimum is the 3rd-4th lowest annual minimum on record, behind 2023🥇 and 2022🥈, and very close to 2017🥉. ⚒️🧪

#Antarctic sea ice just reached its joint second-lowest minimum, according to NSIDC.

It's clear that urgent action is required to curb rapid heating at the poles, but is this evidence of a 'regime shift'?
