@mforddownes @seatsixtyone @EuropeanSlpr There's also a tiny new country between Croatia and Serbia, and Slovenia is missing completely 🤔

@HollyAstle @Right_2Roam Do you know if the access islands that have been identified are mapped/published anywhere?

[Oliver Skånberg-Tippen @oskanberg]

@curiousways @Right_2Roam Is the research/mapping you produced identifying access islands available anywhere? Interested in checking my local area

Today’s a big moment in environ policy world – Biodiversity Net Gain goes live. It’s a super ambitious policy aiming to turn 1 of the biggest drivers of biodv loss (infra development) into a driver of biodv improvement. Our team’s been studying it for 4 yrs: here’s what we know.

[Oliver Skånberg-Tippen @oskanberg]

@robhawkes I think most 'accurate' model is approx ~half the RTE loss on import, ~half on export, with some amount of leakage/loss modelled in-between (though, at 1/100th of a percent/h, it shouldn't make a large difference)

[Oliver Skånberg-Tippen @oskanberg]

@robhawkes @tehancocks Nonlinear wrt temperature, and not symmetric on charge/discharge. You might be able to get some decent approximation by assuming flat round-trip (say, 88%) though

[IPCC @IPCC_CH]

Heatwaves in Europe will become more frequent, more intense & will last longer.

By 2050, about half of the European population may be exposed to high or very high risk of heat stress during summer.

[IPCC @IPCC_CH]

Current policies make it likely that #globalwarming will exceed 1.5°C during the 21st century & make it harder to limit warming below 2°C.

#IPCC's Synthesis Report underscores the urgency of taking more ambitious action. 👉 https://t.co/zAMzd12TGF

NEW

🛢️❤️‍🔥Comprehensive study confirms there is no space for new oil and gas if the world follows a 1.5C pathway

"new oil and gas is incompatible with 1.5C"

🌄🌬️Redirecting $570bn of new oil & gas investment could "fully fund" wind & solar for 1.5C

🚨NEW🚨
On the @bankofengland intervention:
Am told the BoE were responding to a “run dynamic” on pension funds - a wholesale equivalent of the run which destroyed Northern Rock.
Had they not intervened, there would have been mass insolvencies of pension funds by THIS AFTERNOON.

[Oliver Skånberg-Tippen @oskanberg]

"Critics like to say England is too crowded to enjoy the same benefits as Scotland and many other European countries. But then they would think that – they’re all sharing the same 8% of it.

England is not full, it just feels like it."

Barbed wire sucks, rivers are lush and we should all have proper access to the countryside. Me for the @guardian. https://t.co/EeJMnot2NR

[Peter Kalmus @ClimateHuman]

I wish everyone on Earth knew how genuinely "off the charts" key planetary trends are right now, and how abnormal and critical it is. Things like atmospheric CO2 fraction, heat extremes on land and ocean, biodiversity loss and extinction rates. All alarms should be going off

[Professor Chris Whitty @CMO_England]

Keeping human faeces out of the waterways people use recreationally is a key public health intervention.

Water companies can and should act on sewage and effluent discharge.

We lay out why and how below.

The Trespasser's Companion is out today! It's a practical guide that tells you how to win greater access to the countryside, by researching, designing and performing your own trespasses of your local area.
