Precipitable water maps during the Jamaican hurricane of 1903

A damaging hurricane in a warmer world

How would a major hurricane that hit Jamaica in 1903 be different today, in a warmer world?

It would drop more rain. (At least)

Monitoring changes in UK temperature Multiple sources of data agree on long-term observed trends

Air temperatures, soil temperatures and reanalyses all agree on how the UK’s climate has warmed & varied over the past decades.

Don’t listen to the usual critics who try to claim otherwise…

Don’t fall for the authoritarian hype – Reform and the hard right can be stopped in their tracks | Gordon Brown From the US to Europe and Asia, grievances are being exploited to gain power. But moderate voices are still in tune with the majority, says former prime minister Gordon Brown

β€˜β€œFaragism” is neoliberalism at its most inhumane, more destructive even than [Thatcher’s] monetarism, and vindictive far beyond austerity.’

Good analysis by Gordon Brown - and why progressives should attack Farage on economics above all:

The ocean gives us food, oxygen, livelihoods, and climate regulation.
But it’s under threat from overfishing, climate change, pollution, and habitat loss.

When our ocean is in crisis, so are we.
Protecting it means protecting life itself.

Last year, we were lucky enough to welcome Dr Jane Goodall to the Greenpeace stage at Glastonbury, where she shared this beautiful message of HOPE in tough times.

Rest in peace, Jane. Thank you so much for all the hope you gave to us all. πŸ’šπŸ’š
