The prompt for day 12 of the #30DayMapChallenge is a "map from 2125", and this one *almost* fits that description! This shows the areas of Scotland likely to be affected by coastal erosion by 2100 🗺️ #RStats #ggplot2 #DataViz

Do we need a Category 6 hurricane - or even a complete redo of the Saffir-Simpson scale? I spoke with @michaelemann.bsky.social @katharinehayhoe.com @climatecentral.org @danielgilford.bsky.social to learn more. www.independent.co.uk/climate-chan... @the-independent.com

In 2018, Meta decided “clean energy” and “climate change” were politically sensitive topics, and demanded that I - a climate scientist - register as a political org to post and boost posts on them. I refused, and my page has been shadow banned since then. For 7 years. Until this week, that is 😳

These saplings seem fine. It feels relatively calm just now. You wouldn't think there was more high winds forecast for later. So there's lots of people here. #StormAmy #Edinburgh

Rest of Inverleith Park not much damage for now. Just a few branches down. Might be worth closing the gates though.

This week is #ScotClimateWeek. Making small changes can make a big difference and help protect our health and planet. For more ways to take action visit: www.edinburgh.gov.uk/climate-action

A @metoffice.gov.uk yellow weather warning associated with #StormAmy is in place covering Edinburgh from 3pm today until midnight tomorrow. Yellow and amber warnings are in place across Scotland so please plan ahead and stay safe.

Advice on preparing for high winds is available on the Council website: www.edinburgh.gov.uk/severe-weath...

Due to forecasted wind speeds of up to 60mph associated with #StormAmy Princes Street Gardens and all gated public parks will close from 4pm this afternoon and tomorrow. Site inspections will be carried out before re-opening on Sunday (October 5). Plan ahead and take care.

Huge limb fallen 5 metres off a tree onto the path round the pond at Inverleith Park. You can still get round by walming on the grass. #StormAmy #Edinburgh

RBGE gardens currently closed to visitors because of #StormAmy . I hear they've sadly had damage to glass panes in some glasshouses, not the Palm House. And a couple of trees damaged too. And more high winds still expected! Be careful out there people! ⛈️🌀 #Edinburgh www.rbge.org.uk/visit/royal-...

The Government will be testing the emergency alert system this Sunday at 3pm. Compatible mobile phones and tablets will make a loud siren-like sound and vibrate. If you have a device hidden from an abuser, this alert could reveal it. You can opt out using the advice below. www.gov.uk/alerts/optin...

Just fixed the website this morning: - the accessible version of our report is now available again - and the methods section - proper links to each page of the website, from the homepage. If you find a broken link, please say :-) data-4-climate-action-edinburgh.github.io/home/Publica...

Smart cities know that, as hot as they already are, they’re just going to keep getting hotter. Greening the city not only cools it down, it cleans the air, quiets the noise, improves mental health & happiness, saves public money, & more. Strand Aldwych, London. 2021 vs. 2025. Via @modacitylife.com

24 July is #EarthOvershootDay. That means humanity has used up Earth’s yearly natural resources budget in just 7 months. In 2024, the date was 1 August. The date keeps creeping earlier—but the trend can be reversed: www.genevaenvironmentnetwork.org/resources/up...

BIG NEWS for UK climate geeks: We should have a new CCC chair before summer recess on 22 July

"As the UK’s climate warms, it is also becoming wetter, with this report showing that the increase in rainfall is entirely due to an upward trend in the winter half-year (October to March). For 2015-2024 the winter half-year is now 16% wetter than 1961-1990 for the UK."

"Areas particularly badly hit by flooding included eastern Scotland, Derbyshire, Nottinghamshire and the West Midlands"

"UK sea level is rising faster than the global average"

BBC News - Extreme weather is the UK's new normal, says Met Office www.bbc.com/news/article... '..the UK now experiences a climate that is "notably different" to what it was just a few decades ago'

I’m a scientist who studies how climate change impacts our lives and the places we love. Most of us are worried, but many feel stuck on what to do. If that's the way you feel, check out this list below! We can’t fix it alone, but I know we can together. 💚

Breaking ground on London’s newest Cycleway - C34 from Wood Lane to Shepherd’s Bush Green (and then planned to go across Holland Park Roundabout). We’ve expanded London’s Cycleway network to over 400km & the no. of daily journeys has grown to over 1.3m 🚲🚲 #LondonLovesCycling
