Now this is getting to be crazily bad. #climate

Shocked & very sorry to read this. Henry was an exceptional academic but above all he was a warm, witty & kind person whose enchanting & entertaining stories enriched the lives of countless students & colleagues. It is a privilege to have worked with him. A terrible loss.

It is with deep sadness that we share news that our dear friend and colleague, Prof. Henry Buller, died at home with his family, on 2nd May. His intellectual curiosity, vibrancy, warmth, love of transdisciplinary and international connection, means he will be missed by many. 1/4

This was among the most eyebrow-raising articles pushed to me by Google this morning when trying to canvas media opinion on the Lineker situation. I'm also pretty sure the Nazis were *not* left wing. And are famed for being notoriously*right* wing.

Land temps of 62°C - frightening killing heat wave. We are doing this, + refusing to stop. Horrific.

@salisbot This is how my Ukrainian friend who is trapped in Kharkiv with her two year old ended our conversation today, if she does text me back I'll be sure to tell her that white liberal women in the west are thirsting over Zelenskyy, bet she'll be super psyched!

@ExeterGeography What tragic news, I'm very sorry to hear this. Clive was a sharp, astute and insightful scholar with a witty sense of humour. He will be sorely missed. Thoughts are with his family, friends and colleagues 💐

@ninawillment @RHULGeography Amazing news! Huge congrats Nina 👏🏻🎊🎉 There's no feeling quite like the #phdone feeling. Drink it all in and enjoy!

I'm not saying this is solely the reason for such a heinous series of crimes, but having such messages poured out day in, day out from mainstream media outlets, programmes etc surely cannot be helping the situation.

One of the most widely read newspapers in the UK slams the sexist actions of a murderer...*right next to* their own reporting inviting readers to sexualise & objectify women for pleasure. Yet it's what the murderer did to select #SarahEverard. Anyone else see issues here?

@joncinnamon Congrats Jon!

According to the new IPCC report, the carbon budget that gives us the best odds of staying below 1,5°C runs out in less than 5 and a half years at our current emissions rate. Maybe someone should ask the people in power how they plan to “solve” that?

[Simon Evans @DrSimEvans]

No one is going to be told to "rip out" their gas boiler

The UK contributed 5% of historical CO2, one of largest shares per current population

It isn't more than 600 plants, it's less than 400

And most of those coal plants won't get built anyway

Other than that, great job

@SquireRachael Amazing, Rachael! Massive achievement considering everything else that's been going on. Looks like an interesting read too! 🎊

This shows just how far the Trump campaign were prepared to go to illegally remain in power. It's frightening how close they came to succeeding.

This is serious. Very, very serious. https://t.co/hgGv6FviNa

Don't get me wrong, I too have taken recreational drugs in the past. But never immediately before appearing on national television.

Andrew Williams, senior lecturer at Cardiff University, says there's a lot of poverty being ''concealed'' within the countryside.

''We're living in a country where the people feeding the nation are experiencing poverty.''

I know there are other things going on but I have just discovered this and OH MY GOD.

LeaveEU has - WAIT FOR IT - moved its domain to Ireland. In order to stay in the EU 😂
