I think the time has come to pause twitter. With so many being made redundant this is repugnant. Musk’s intentions are not clear, certainly more unregulated and probably not good for society. It’s been an interesting journey and occasionally dubious journey. Good bye💙

On the day that Bolsonaro gets ejected. Here’s a short blog from my Brazilian PhD student Larissa de Oliviera on some of her stunning work. Go Brazil!! @dr_aaron_lim @iCRAGcentre @uccBEES @eriucc @profconti12 ucc.ie/en/marinegeology/news…

Larissa presents at the 4th Marine Imaging Workshop, Brest, France | University College Cork

Learn, Study and Research in UCC, Ireland's first 5 star university. Our tradition of independent thinking will prepare you for the world and the workplace in a vibrant, modern, green campus.

I am so so sorry to hear that the brilliant Herman Daly - founding father of ecological economics - has died. His paradigm-changing work flipped my little econ head inside out & inspired me to write a book on rewriting economics… Here are just some of his big ideas 1/n.

Good grief. Climate change catastrophe? Don’t worry, use reusable cups! Unbelievable and depressing lack of leadership

This clip is so revealing. You can become a Cabinet Minister and be very successful in British politics without thinking in an serious way about the biggest global and economic challenge we face. The blind spot is going to get us all killed.

It’s a cracking paper. We derive seabed current speed from water depth data. Really? Yes! We map the morphology of seabed bedforms and use their metrics to define flow fields and strength. Wow! Read it! Mic drop, we’re done mdpi.com/2072-4292/14/19/473… @uccBEES @iCRAGcentre @eriucc

Seabed sedimentary bedforms (SSBs) are strong indicators of current flow (direction and velocity) and can be mapped in high resolution using multibeam echosounders. Many approaches have been designed...

Letters from urban car drivers complaining about the traffic, blaming bus lanes etc, but also saying they can’t get out of their cars until public transport improves. Catch 22 situation. irishtimes.com/opinion/lette…

This is ridiculously unbelievable that a CLIMATE MINISTER can be so anti-climate. It breaks my heart

It’s hard to read this: “Fracking and drilling for new oil and gas in the North Sea is green and good for the environment, Liz Truss’s new climate minister said on Wednesday” theguardian.com/environment/…

I’d rather bathe in a forest than in the sea. I find forests enriching and beaches boring

It is crazy we move a tonne of metal around to get us from a to b. And then sit and wait in traffic jams because all those tonnes of metal take up too much space. What are we doing!
