The current temperatures in western and central Europe would have been virtually impossible 50 years ago, and unprecedented humidity levels make this heatwave especially dangerous https://t.co/qg3SBoSiSo
Unsere Kinder und Enkel werden uns bitter verfluchen.
Die #Erderhitzung lässt sich auch durch Nullemissionen nicht zurückdrehen, nur die weitere Erhitzung stoppen.
Denn CO2 bleibt Jahrtausende in der Luft. Kipppunkte kommen näher.
Es wird kein Zurück geben.
Delighted to see my colleague and friend @ProfPaulDunlop present his research on failing concrete in Leinster House.
His research was into the cause of the failure (internal sulfate attack) and into the mental health crisis it has caused.

S.R16 is @NSAI_Standards guidance on how EU standards for concrete aggregates are implemented by Irish concrete producers. Our research found that total sulfur levels from pyrrhotite set in these were breached & caused the defective concrete crisis.

Delighted to see our paper "Lines in the Landscape" published.
Thanks to @MikePeacock86 for organising a great workshop for ditch "experts" a few years ago in Liverpool. They discussions there led to this publication. It highlights the importance of ditches in our landscapes.
I'm thrilled to see this paper out, which I co-led with @DitchOntologist, and featuring input from loads of excellent co-authors. It's our interdisciplinary perspective on ditches; what they do, why they matter, and how we should look after them.
