The @IPBES #GlobalAssessment released today shows humanity is clearly causing a biodiversity crisis. But it also gives reason to hope. We know #conservationworks. The cost of not doing it is more clear than ever. #IPBES7 ow.ly/e63Y50u0ecv

On being a boundary creature...
Participate in environmental science. It’s win-win. Caution: can be addictive: “I’ll just transcribe one more...” 2 hours later!

Can you spare a few minutes to help climate scientists rescue lost weather observations? Our #weatherrescue volunteers have completed the 1861-1863 batch already! Onto 1864-65! weatherrescue.org
Good luck, Ed and team.

Shirt. Blazer. Early train to Swindon. Hoping that @NERCscience will decide to fund our large grant proposal to build a new global temperature dataset, including #weatherrescue... Amazing team. Important science questions. Citizen science. How could they not?!

Our @openupsci team member @ed_hawkins has joined forces with @ScienceWeekUK to ask the UK public to help tackle a research problem by getting involved in his #weatherrescue #citizenscience project. Details below.
Want a practical way of helping climate scientists? Spend just 15 minutes at weatherrescue.org & join the crowd who are helping digitise millions of lost weather observations taken in the 1860s to learn more about extreme weather. And please spread the word #weatherrescue
