Heads up, occasionally see impersonators on here. I report + block on sight, encourage you to do the same.

On that note, @climatechirper.bsky.social is a rad scientist you should def follow, we're cooking up a cool compound extremes workshop.

@climatechiper.bsky.social is a FAKE, report and block

I thought I would try to make a starter pack of Australian climate scientists and help get the community using bluesky more. Please let me know if you've seen anybody around that I've missed! @timraupach.bsky.social @raindrop-herder.bsky.social

surprising? No.
concerning? Absolutely.
Our emissions continue to rise.
We are warming faster than the global average.
Extremes are more extreme, the see-saw flings higher.
