This week: how to fix the climate crisis with @drkatemarvel.bsky.social and Tim ‘tipping point’ Lenton and @tinymaddie.bsky.social @uniexecec.bsky.social open.spotify.com/episode/5bwx...

Great to see coverage of @exeterassembly.bsky.social's Cool Hub initiative yesterday, providing water and a place to cool down in Exeter city centre. This initiative serves as a key example of the need for community adaptation in response to the climate crisis. www.youtube.com/watch?v=Oiv1...

Nice news piece on Canadian national news about our Convex SeascapeSurveywork. youtube.com/watch?v=DXhI... watch from 17:30 @exetermarine.bsky.social @gsiexeter.bsky.social

We are in Saguenay fjord, Canada for our next Convex Seascape Survey bioturbation experiment 😀 Working with colleagues from Southampton and Laval University. @exetermarine.bsky.social @gsiexeter.bsky.social

Any good news? Yes actually. Thanks to @gsiexeter.bsky.social's Steve Smith we get a reminder that some tipping points can actually be positive. Great new conversation. news.wickedproblems.uk/p/tipping-po...

🌊 Scientists from University of Exeter and @pml.ac.uk have urged caution in upscaling ocean carbon removal technologies until the environmental impacts are better understood. @exetermarine.bsky.social @gsiexeter.bsky.social @guyhooper.bsky.social news.exeter.ac.uk/faculty-of-e...

🌱 How can a local eco-hub spark lasting change? Our research explored the impact of a Devon-based hub on pro-environmental behaviour, community inclusion, and wellbeing. Read more: sites.exeter.ac.uk/per/2025/07/... #CommunityResearch #Sustainability #PublicEngagement #EcoHub

📢 Applications welcome for a fully funded PhD project to work on tipping points @utas.edu.au in Australia! Study "Overshoots in Delay Differential Equations" with Dr Courtney Quinn, Prof Michael Charleston and myself (@gsiexeter.bsky.social). Closing date 1st August www.utas.edu.au/research/deg...

Appreciate the opportunity to write my first article with @uk.theconversation.com during the @gsiexeter.bsky.social Global Tipping Points Conference which reinforced the need to rapidly respond to climate tipping by leveraging positive tipping in our social, technical and environmental systems

What a week @Global Tipping Points conference @gsiexeter.bsky.social From stark warnings on very-near climate tipping points to identifying feedback loops, system rules (in finance, markets and culture) and mindset change we need for climate action 🌍 Heavy-hearted but determined & inspired ✊

BBC journalist Ashley Lime, based in Kenya, spoke at the Exeter Climate Conference yesterday about how climate change is an acute issue for Africa, affecting health, food security and economies, and how culture and tradition plays a role in shaping perceptions. ⤵️ 👀 she describe what gives her hope.

We’re into the last day at the Global Tipping Points Conference. A great week of panels, talks and workshops discussing tipping points in physical and human systems. Some of it a bit scary, but always some hope that there is still time for change. #GTPConference

Myles Allen with a straight forward message: To stop climate change, companies must stop selling stuff that cause global warming. @gsiexeter.bsky.social

Another thought provoking plenary at the @gsiexeter.bsky.social Global Tipping Points conference with a stellar panel of amazing speakers.

The amazing Larissa Van der Laan created this wonderful piece based on my abstract that I submitted to the #GTPConference. It perfectly captures threatened deep sea ecosystems and cold water coral reefs through gradual and abrupt global change that I describe in ESMs. @gsiexeter.bsky.social

As the Exeter Climate Forum gets underway at @exeter.ac.uk and amid a heatwave, "the evidence for climate change has never been clearer", says Professor Peter Cox, Director of @gsiexeter.bsky.social. @metoffice.gov.uk #exeterclimateforum www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...

It's a lively start to the first day of our Global Tipping Points Conference with climate experts, policymakers, and researchers joining us from across the world to discuss climate tipping points and their potential impacts. #GSIExeter #GTPConference #TippingPoints

Full house for start of @gsiexeter.bsky.social Global Tipping Points conference at @exeter.ac.uk

Electric trucks are on course to overtake diesel equivalents on lifetime cost – and smart policies can accelerate this transition, new research shows Here researcher Amir Akther explains the findings @exeter.ac.uk @gsiexeter.bsky.social @theicct.org

⚡🔌 Battery electric trucks are reaching lifetime cost parity with diesel — and starting to overtake them. Globally aligned emissions standards or mandates could accelerate this tipping point in lagging markets. New analysis from our @eeist-project.bsky.social team: eeist.co.uk/eeist-report... 🧵

Join us for this week's talk in the GSI Seminar Series with @sariqawagley.bsky.social, microbiologist and Research Fellow at the University of Exeter.
