Thank you very much @NepaliTimes for this feature. Thank you for the opportunity to share my story..

Very sad to hear that Alejo Cochachin has died. Alejo was a leader in improving understanding of glaciers, lakes, and mountain ecoystems in the tropical Andes, and his passing leaves a huge void in the research community. My condolences to his family, friends, and colleagues.

This #dataviz shows the UK's warmest year on record. It has been relentlessly mild (or hot) all year apart from a 2 week cold spell at the beginning of December (which made it the only cold month). Overall the mean temperature exceeded 10°C for the first time ever!

Huge Trans Win!

The Scottish Parliament has passed a landmark Gender Recognition Reform Bill by 86 votes to 39 after six years of tireless, impassioned work by Scottish campaigners.

A great video at the end about the etymology of cloud names: cirrus, "curl", stratus, "layer" and cumulus, "pile".

[Ed Hawkins @ed_hawkins]

Cumulonimbus!

Luke Howard, who named the various cloud types, was born 250 years ago today.

An Antarctic giant for you today: the scale worm Eulagisca gigantea. This awesome worm is covered in scales (not in pic, which is the underside of the worm) and golden chaetae (the chitinous bristles that polychaetes are named for). #NoVERMber

A thread on the Cambridge Sustainable Travel Zone (STZ).

With a narrative of ‘you'll be charged £5 a day to move a car in Cambridge’ of course there will be opposition.

[Zeke Hausfather @hausfath]

@ClimateFlavors Yep, I think we as a community need to do better at communicating what tipping elements are, and that they do not (generally) imply runaway warming. As @jrockstrom's own recent Science paper shows we don't know a priori what the balance of global cooling and warming will be:

My full news report on Pyramid Lab for @thexylom.
The pyramid’s geometric shape, is almost three-thirds wider on each side (43.4 ft./ 13.2 m) than its height (27.6 ft./ 8.4m).
