The week in #climate so far:

Monday: Average global temperature hits 17.01°C (62.62°F), highest in 125,000 years

Tuesday: Record climbs to 17.18°C, beats Monday's

Thursday: Record climbs to 17.23°C, beats Tuesday's

3 hottest days in 125,000 years in 4 days

It's only Friday

Capetonians! Twelve days is surely enough notice for an event such as this, even for Capetonians? People tell me I should have posted this three months ago, but I said no - you underestimate the people of Cape Town! I have faith in them! Help me prove that naysayer wrong.

@DHLNL you clearly do NOT want to communicate with your customers. Your bot Tracy is utterly useless. There is no way to communicate or complain other than through gatekeeper Tracy. Worst service EVER! And you just keep bumping my packages since Monday on your app "verhinderd" 🤷‍♀️

@gwaShuuya_4th Just saw your insert on CNN Inside Africa - awesome to see African women going into business and leadership! Well done 👌❤️

@Apple we move around in the real world please get your engineers to roll back the changes and bring back the OFF switch without having to delete all cards to do so.
Not all upgrades are "up" some are just plain stupid.

@Apple how stupid is it that the Wallet function is always on! There are many instances where I need to show a QR code which is not compatible with Apple Wallet. Got trapped in Amsterdam station Wed night very late because of this! Stop trying to be such a domineering technology!

@amanpour thank you for clearly stating on @CNN tonight what is plain to see: Developed world climate irresponsibility killing children in the developing world #PakistanFloods #LossAndDamageFinance #ClimateAction #ClimateCrisis

@JuSummerhayes We are taught to be positive and "grow" - progress/expansion etc. etc. And we tend to avoid pain/discomfort. Death brings all of this into consciousness.

Dutch cabinet considers a meat tax, to ensure that consumers eat less meat.

Important signal that should be supported.

Dear @BBCNews Why did you give Farage a platform on the Rwandan plan on the 3pm news on Radio 4.

There are charities who know the issues of immigration, lawyers who understand the law and opposition parties who are publicly elected.

@NivashniNair @antonioguterres Climate change is a human tragedy. Not preparing for storms you know will come is neglect by leaders @cenfri_org @CSIR @WorldBankAfrica @ZeniZeniMalango

[^ness^ @theChangeEdge]

@NivashniNair Make the link between climate risk, disaster risk preparedness, the risk protection gap. As the climate changes storm systems will get stronger, more people will suffer. Governments must start climate risk work now and globally we must get off fossil fuels @antonioguterres

@JuSummerhayes I get it. UK is losing the plot totally.

@THemingford @GMB @richardm56 @grantshapps sounds like Boris... what's going on UK?

@carboncoach @GaryLineker @ITV @GMB @richardm56 @antonioguterres good suggestions ... his @WHSmith sponsors should also edit his reading list...
