Five years ago today I took the best photo I’ll probably ever take. I like good photos and have a four hour bus journey shortly so need entertaining. Feel free to reply with the best photo you ever took. Accompanying description also welcome.

A tribute to the DAME
I will never forget you.
My thoughts are with your sons, grandchildren, family, friends & your legions of fans throughout the world who admired & loved you.

NEW | China's coal-fired power generation fell for a third consecutive month in July 2024
Our latest @EmberClimate data shows that wind and solar gains in hydropower have led to the largest declines in two years and the first sustained declines since the Covid-19 pandemic.

Overnight, we experienced the first Extreme Geomagnetic Storm since 2003.
We received hundreds of wonderful images of the northern lights from right across the UK, so here are just a few of them @ishantanu_ @TraceyBtint @PJPolarBear1 @olemonka 👇

In fact it has fired 5 coronal mass ejections in quick succession that are Earth-directed. While the flares lead to radio blackouts, CMEs can cause problems for our satellites and power grids but also dazzling displays of auroras. (3/n)

If where you live in the U.K. is cloud-free this evening, cast your gaze northwards. The northern lights should be visible as far south as southern England. A very rare event indeed.

Aira has announced the opening of a new training center in Sheffield, England, which will train more than heat pump 8,000 installers over the next decade.
The new facility, named the Aira Academy, features training rooms and demonstration zones designed to give trainees the ability to practice “a variety of heat pump installation scenarios.”

Wow. According to this research 40% of the 1.5C C02 budget could be used just for digital & internet use/infrastructure & 55% of the earths carrying capacity for minerals & metals for the same use.

"You don’t need to own land to care for it & don’t need permission to act on nature’s behalf."
Last night I joined a group of nature guardians & advocates to launch our book ‘Wild Service’ into the world, in a ceremony of poetry, song & oratory for a new relationship with nature

This is extremely charming. I'm not sure I've seen this before.
'I've got my lines!'

👏🏻Brilliantly argued by @ChiefExecCCC at @SP_NetZero (expanding on & emphasising some of what he said to @bbclaurak recently), about the wide-ranging, multiple benefits of progressing & achieving #NetZero, being collaborative, & getting our discourse into a more positive space.💯
Yesterday, @BenMacpherson asked @ChiefExecCCC how he thought we could all get our collective political discourse in a better place, when it comes to achieving net zero 👇

When the UK switched from town gas to natural gas
in the 1960s there was a lot of resistance and negativity in the media.
Today gas boilers running on natural gas are the main heating technology in the UK.
Great slide from @renewablewriter
