Any shares of this for algorithmical purposes much-appreciated. I'd love to get these books out of my spare room & into the world before my new novel comes out. I'll sign them all & I really am happy to let people choose what they pay.

(Postage to UK is £4.)

All I have left of the 1000s of books I bought from my ex-publisher's warehouse are about 200 copies of Ring The Hill. I'd *love* to get them to good homes this week.

If you're in the UK & you'd like one, for the price of your choice (any price!), pls email me your address at [email protected].

I have a very immediate appointment need for a junior PD position as a chapter scientist on the @ipcc.bsky.social Special Report on Climate Change and Cities. Initial appointment will be 6 months so I can appoint immediately but extendable to the two years of the report cycle. (1/2)

2024 has recorded the highest temperature in any year since 1850 🌡🌍

This is the 11th year in succession that has equalled or exceeded 1.0°C above the pre-industrial average period

A number of centres released their estimates today:

2024: record-breaking watershed year for global climate
2024 was the warmest year on record globally and the first year that was likely more than 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels: a stark reminder global temperatures are continuing to rise.

Sam's had to step back from helping. We'd 💚 more volunteers to help.

Could that be you?

Looking for a distraction today? Or just want to help climate scientists?

Immerse yourself in some ship voyages from the 1860s and help transcribe the weather observations taken so we can improve our understanding of how the climate has changed.

The year to date averages in 2024 started high as you might expect from an El Niño year (e.g 2016), but the average hasn't fallen as far and the past couple of months look like the average might be increasing again (October number is ERA5 based on daily averages to the 25th)
A complex graph. It shows temperature difference from the 1981-2010 average on the y axis and month on the x axis (January through December). The lines on the plot are the year-to-date averages from 1850-2024 so the leftmost point is the january average for that year and the rightmost point is the january to december average for that year. Most years (labelled other years) are shown in grey. 2023 and 2024 are shown in red and 2016 is a sort of pale teal. A green shaded area is titled (~1.5°C range).
