Lauren M Cook @laurenmcook.bsky.social · 19/08/2026Official MeteoSwiss data put Zurich at ~40 hot days (>30°C) so far this summer; the Kaserne station alone recorded 53. Burgstall et al. 2021 projected that as the avg. number of hot days for Zurich by 2085 under RCP8.5. We're there, only 50 years early. Credit to @adietzel.bsky.social 010

Lauren M Cook @laurenmcook.bsky.social · 07/08/2025Green roofs ≠ ground habitats. 🌿🏙️ Only 10% of invertebrate species on the ground are found on nearby rooftops. Green roofs host distinct species that need tailored design to thrive. Treat them as ecosystems, not substitutes. 📄 doi.org/10.1016/j.je... #GreenInfrastructure #Biodiversity #GreenRoofsdoi.orgRedirecting 122
