Important thread here on the possibility of scrapping ECO. I would add that when ECO was cut in 2013, 10,000 people lost their jobs. That's more than 3 times as many than Scunthorpe steel works and a whopping 20 times more than Grangemouth oil refinery

Happy lungs-filled-with-metal-and-carbon day to all who celebrate 😞 (To be fair this is not the worst one I've seen, largely because it's windy and maybe because🎆on a weekday so we'll see another spike at the weekend)

If you still want to have a sleepless night now that temperatures have cooled in the UK, just follow @extremetemps.bsky.social for an abundance of nightmare material about extreme heat across the globe 😱

"Otto said that too many media reports about heatwaves include photographs of children eating ice cream and happy people playing on the beach. “That’s a massive problem”, she said, although she added that more articles were now referring to the role of climate change in driving heatwaves."

🌡️🔥Climate change isn't a distant threat—it's a public health crisis now. Our study shows heat-related deaths in many cities could surpass annual COVID-19 deaths in just 5–10 years at 3°C warming. Urgent action is needed! 👉 rdcu.be/d5rnL @natureportfolio.bsky.social #scientificreports

"Professor Sebastian Pfautsch, an expert in urban planning at the University of Western Sydney who has been gathering data on the growing dangers of heat in our sprawling city, took a reading off the surface of a piece of gym equipment. It was 98 degrees – easily enough to burn a child’s hand"

As the heat soars, dangers mount in Sydney’s parks and playgrounds
Though temperature records were not broken across the state on Monday as feared, scientists are finding that even a standard summer day presents real dangers in Sydney.
