This article is definitely worth reading. When sitting down.

Have been trying out a Seestar S50. This is a 20 minute integration of NGC891, also known as the Silver Slive Galaxy.

This might be "deeply shocking", but it's not particularly surprising. www.theguardian.com/politics/ng-...

Joe Rogan has one of the world's most popular podcasts. Unfortunately, like nearly all of the most popular online shows, his tends to spread climate misinformation. For @climateconnections.bsky.social I scrutinize his recent episode with octogenarian climate contrarians Lindzen & Happer 🧵 (1/11)

I discussed the issues a couple of years ago @realclimate.org www.realclimate.org/index.php/ar... and the latest barrage of op-eds adds nothing to their argument.

Koonin spending an entire WSJ column criticizing @nationalacademies.org’s report for not being a review of his DOE climate contrarian report when (1) to my knowledge, the Academies have never reviewed a gov’t report without being asked (though such an independent review, or comparable, is necessary…

My latest on The Climate Brink: Is this the most embarrassing error in the DOE Climate Working Group Report? The DOE CWG authors confuse detection and attribution with emergence.

Last week the German Meteorological Society warned that "the 3-degree limit could be exceeded as early as 2050". While not possible to fully rule out, the assessed warming scenarios we published in the IPCC AR6 report find this to be extremely unlikely.

1/ A rising telescope under a rising Sun and Moon! 🔭☀️🌕 This montage is a kaleidoscope of moments from the construction of our Extremely Large Telescope. Creating this #ELT collage took Boris Häußler, an ESO astronomer in Chile, years of meticulous planning.

I used to think that climate change was a somewhat unique example of a topic that was challenging to discuss publicly. The last few years have made me realise that it's not just climate change; we seem incapable of having nuanced discussions about any complex/contentious topic.

Caught a bus today to pick up my car and wanted to go to the last stop. When we got to the second last, the bus driver checked if I wanted to get off. When we got to the last stop, I asked why and was told it's because most people who go to the last stop have fallen asleep and missed their stop :-)

🤣

I totally agree, the two articles you mention are really worth reading - esp by those not asking what science 'is' (or even worse 'should be') but how it's 'done'. (This one is also good: diagrammonkey.wordpress.com/2025/08/10/e...)

Many years ago I had a somewhat "amusing" discussion with Viscount Monckton that included his clerk (James Rowlatt) taking over because "his Lordship [was] engaged on other business". climateconomysociety.blogspot.com/2015/01/monc...

There was outrage in Conservative circles at the revelation that Angela Rayner has a property empire extending to two actual residences. From the new Private Eye, out now.

NEW STUDY: How much CO2 can we safely store in geological formations? In a new @nature.com study, we cross-check established academic and industry estimates with various risk factors. We find a prudent geological CO2 storage limit that is about 10x smaller. /1

Metathugs Science, metascience, metametascience, *critical* metascience, and how science's greatest strengths are its greatest weaknesses. Gloomier than usual and it's only Wednesday. diagrammonkey.wordpress.com/2025/08/13/m...

“Even if climate change plays a big role in the weather event, what turns weather into a disaster is always strongly shaped by vulnerability and exposure". Read @wwattribution.bsky.social Dr @frediotto.bsky.social's comments for @grist.org on the Texas Floods: grist.org/extreme-weat...

Climate models since the 1970s nailed it—most predicted global warming almost exactly as it happened.

Huge thanks to the dozens of climate scientists who sent us their rebuttals to the catalogue of outright falsehoods and misleading claims in Trump's new 'critical' climate report. This factcheck is the longest article CB has ever published - 27,500 words already and likely to keep growing...

Very interesting issue.

Had the pleasure of chatting with Prof Steve Desch (@deschscoveries.bsky.social) regarding Avi Loeb's latest claims that an interstellar object might be a hostile alien probe. Spoiler alert: It isn't. We break down Loeb's weak, cherry picking arguments. Full link: youtube.com/watch?v=B4wp... 🧪⚛️
