Speaking as an @IPCC_CH Lead Author, these are some of the most important new messages from the #climate report out today: (🧵)

1. For the first time we’re seeing evidence of real, sustained decreases in greenhouse gas emissions from some countries.

But take a breath because…

The just-released @IPCC_CH working group III report on #ClimateChange warns that we aren't currently on track to limit warming to 1.5°C. Only immediate, deep action can help us avoid dangerous warming. One of Climate Futures missions is wake people up to #ClimateAction

Due to the forecast for Friday 7th, there is a change of venue for the memorial. We will now gather at 47 Hinsby Rd, Taroona for a short memorial service starting at 2.30pm, followed by drinks and eats at Taroona Bowls Club. We may overflow outside: do bring wet weather gear.

[Climate Futures @ClimateFutures_]

For those in Tasmania, Bec’s memorial will be held at Taroona Beach at 2:30pm Friday 7 Jan, followed by a get-together at Taroona Bowls Club. Friends & colleagues welcome. Due to COVID restrictions, we need to know exact numbers. Please RSVP here if you haven't already done so.

Most importantly, Bec was just a wonderful person- in addition to be being smart as a whip, innovative & hard working, she was kind, funny, & fabulous to be around. The best traveling & workshop companion! I will miss her so much xxx

[Climate Futures @ClimateFutures_]

From the Climate Futures Team, heartfelt condolences to Bec's family for the loss of their beautiful wife, mother, sister. A wonderful person, gone too soon. We are so sorry for your loss.

[Climate Futures @ClimateFutures_]

The Climate Futures team announces with deep sadness the death of Dr Bec Harris. Bec was @ClimateFutures_ Director, a respected climate scientist, an IPCC Lead Author, a brilliant researcher. As a friend & colleague, Bec was both inspiring and much fun. We will miss her greatly.
