There's been a long debate about why there was a big decline in atmospheric C02 in the 16th and 17th centuries.

Now, thanks to new analysis by ice core scientist Dr Amy King, we're pretty sure we have the answer: colonialism.

Bonjour Nice

[Dr Francesca Falcini @FranFalcini]

Leeds to Nice by train. The holiday begins at a very sunny Leeds train station. If all goes to plan we will be waking up in Nice tomorrow morning. Thanks to the @seatsixtyone website for guidance!

[Dr Francesca Falcini @FranFalcini]

Time for bed, next stop Nice!

So cool to see periods in polar fieldwork covered in the news! I got mine 10 days early in Greenland recently, and being prepared is so important. Such an important topic to help break down barriers for women in polar science! 👏 @Pagodroma @UKPolarNetwork https://t.co/LWcI3vOPew

What a find! Four years after @DrMikePJ et al. of @CU_Earth tested their #cryoegg 🥚❄️ at #Rhonegletscher… we found it again – this time at the surface! Never heard of #cryoegg?

The game, the Spanish players deserve more, no players should have to endure this. It’s unacceptable, and also laughable that these men still are allowed so much power. @Jennihermoso we are all with you ❤️

[Girls on the Ball @GirlsontheBall]

It’s about damn time! Nike agree to run limited quantities of Mary Earps’ goalkeeper shirt.

It also includes goalkeeper shirts from the USA, France and the Netherlands.

Another lesson in why you don’t underestimate women’s sport.

Take that in. Then try wrapping your head around the fact that we’re only seeing the beginning of a destabilising planet, while remembering that GHG emissions are still rising and the companies largely causing this are making record profits.

A bit concerning, don’t you think?
