From 1999, with top experts like Jonathan Overpeck, Richard Alley & the late Wally Broecker, it's surprisingly current: that risk looks much higher now. 🌊 youtu.be/PF-MMxkG9fg?...youtu.beThe Big ChillYouTube video by Earth System Analysis - Potsdam Institute 522791 227

Katy Arnold @katyarnie.bsky.social · 07/05/2026Funny, warm talk from Tessa Quinn on delivering the Ukrainian resettlement scheme. So much to learn. The importance of agile actionable user research.

Katy Arnold @katyarnie.bsky.social · 07/05/2026Loving the talk from @emmaparnell.bsky.social and Videha Sharma on how tech is landed in clinical settings. The partnership between design and clinical is key. A minimum viable service is not unsafe - and iteration is the best way to implement new services products in healthcare 🤩 #CampDigital 040 4
