The 2015 Paris Agreement could help the world avoid 57 hot days if countries follow through on their emission-cutting plans and limit warming this century to 2.6°C, a new study by @climatecentral.org and @wwattribution.bsky.social has found 🧵 Read it here: buff.ly/XLTl57y

Starting out to meetings in London with @wwattribution.bsky.social to discuss @wasitusie.bsky.social collaboration and then next week an @ipcc.bsky.social special report related meeting. The captain expects a smooth crossing. Pump it into my veins 🤣

See our most recent study featured on RTE news today!

Ireland was set for average summer heat but climate change pushed temperature to record high

Human-caused climate change made the warm days experienced this summer nine times more likely, and the warm nights 40 times more likely, according to a new study from climatologists at ICARUS, MU's climate research centre, and Met Éireann. www.maynoothuniversity.ie/faculty-soci...

"Climate change turned a would-be average Irish summer into a record breaker" - This was largely due to the high night-time temperatures which are 40 times more likely due to human-caused climate change. See our full report at mural.maynoothuniversity.ie/id/eprint/20...

Great to see coverage of our first full @wasitusie.bsky.social study on RTE (and elsewhere). Kudos @clairebergin.bsky.social and Lionel swan as well as met Éireann colleagues and thanks as ever to @wwattribution.bsky.social for the hugely valuable collaboration www.rte.ie/news/ireland...
