“You can come up with a pledge, but it’s putting that into action on the ground” - Prof of conservation @StirBES @KirstyJPark on @Channel4news last night on the need for action in the run up to #COP26 and to balance #biodiversity and climate change goals 👇https://t.co/AXo6R99CFC
I made a wee film about Geodiversity to support the bid to have an international day highlighting our geological heritage. You can view it here... https://t.co/BrKbaL6WW4
Activity is gradually increasing at #Etna's Southeast Crater, building up toward the 16th paroxysmal eruptive episode in little more than five weeks. Loud detonations audible in the southern sector of the volcano. View is from home in Tremestieri Etneo

First off some images showing some spatter from the main vent! Ejected molten lava lands on the sides of the vent and solidifies, and over time builds a cone around the vent. This is typical of effusive fissure eruptions of basaltic lava.
This week's #InspiringPeopleAtHome event is with President of RSGS, @Profiainstewart!

10 years since the massive 11 March 2011 M9.1 Tohoku, Japan, earthquake and tsunami reminded us all that the earth can dish up worse earthquakes than have been seen in recent memory. Warmest regards to anyone who was impacted by that tragic event.
The so-called "Black Tsunami" phenomenon was one of the most disturbing aspects of the 2011 Japan #earthquake and #tsunami that we remember today. Experts have found that coastal pollution is making tsunamis even more more dangerous and deadly in their impacts @IocUnesco
1/2 Today, the total number of earthquakes measured on the #Reykjanes peninsula during the last two weeks exceeded 34,000. This exceeds the number of earthquakes measured during the whole of 2020, which was characterized by unusually high seismic activity.
