I asked AI what all the fuss is about. 'Transgender athletes are extremely rare in high-level sports competitions, representing less than 0.002% of college athletes and about 0.001% of Olympic competitors'. So turns out this issue is just about small minds spreading hate. Cheers Alaska

Alaska voters are absolutely SICK of hearing about trans athletes.

'The pension triple lock could face the axe under plans by Andy Burnham as he looks to fund a new national care service'. Okay..so please note that whenever Andy Burnham says UK, he really means England. It's reported that his new national care service is for England only? But pensions are UK wide!

Jamieson Greer, the US trade representative, just announced that the Trump administration “is imposing tariffs on more than 80 countries for their failure to impose and effectively enforce a prohibition on the importation of goods produced with forced labor.” Those damn penguins!!!

Not just Wales..Scotland has also been used as Englands dumping grounds by both Tory & Labour for years. Labour's plans for Scotland should they get in in May are horrendous. No wonder both nations want independent political parties, not just branch offices www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

Of course the water use has been underestimated. EVERY SINGLE EXAMPLE shows that not only has data centre owners/operators routinely lie about water use, bit also about energy consumptions and carbon emissions. WAKE UP!! www.theguardian.com/environment/...

It's scary how fast the earth is warming. For a long time, the 🌊 ocean surface was warming at a slower 🐌 rate but the warming rate appears to have caught up 🐇. ➡️ In our study about the jump in SSTs, we also estimated a 0.27°C per decade warming of global SSTs (www.nature.com/articles/s41...)

nature.comRecord sea surface temperature jump in 2023–2024 unlikely but not unexpected - NatureObservations and climate models suggest that the global sea surface temperature jump in 2023–2024 was not unexpected and would have been nearly impossible without anthropogenic warming.
Zeke Hausfather@zekehausfather.com

Our new paper updating key metrics in the IPCC is now out, and the news is grim: ⬆️ Human induced warming now at 1.36C ⬆️ Rate of warming now 0.27C / decade ⬆️ Sharp increase in Earth's energy imbalance ⬇️ Remaining 1.5C carbon budget only 130 GtCO2 essd.copernicus.org/...

essd.copernicus.orgIndicators of Global Climate Change 2024: annual update of key indicators of the state of the climate system and human influenceAbstract. In a rapidly changing climate, evidence-based decision-making benefits from up-to-date and timely information. Here we compile monitoring datasets (published at https://doi.org/10.5281/zenodo.15639576; Smith et al., 2025a) to produce updated estimates for key indicators of the state of the climate system: net emissions of greenhouse gases and short-lived climate forcers, greenhouse gas concentrations, radiative forcing, the Earth's energy imbalance, surface temperature changes, warming attributed to human activities, the remaining carbon budget, and estimates of global temperature extremes. This year, we additionally include indicators for sea-level rise and land precipitation change. We follow methods as closely as possible to those used in the IPCC Sixth Assessment Report (AR6) Working Group One report. The indicators show that human activities are increasing the Earth's energy imbalance and driving faster sea-level rise compared to the AR6 assessment. For the 2015–2024 decade average, observed warming relative to 1850–1900 was 1.24 [1.11 to 1.35] °C, of which 1.22 [1.0 to 1.5] °C was human-induced. The 2024-observed best estimate of global surface temperature (1.52 °C) is well above the best estimate of human-caused warming (1.36 °C). However, the 2024 observed warming can still be regarded as a typical year, considering the human-induced warming level and the state of internal variability associated with the phase of El Niño and Atlantic variability. Human-induced warming has been increasing at a rate that is unprecedented in the instrumental record, reaching 0.27 [0.2–0.4] °C per decade over 2015–2024. This high rate of warming is caused by a combination of greenhouse gas emissions being at an all-time high of 53.6±5.2 Gt CO2e yr−1 over the last decade (2014–2023), as well as reductions in the strength of aerosol cooling. Despite this, there is evidence that the rate of increase in CO2 emissions over the last decade has slowed compared to the 2000s, and depending on societal choices, a continued series of these annual updates over the critical 2020s decade could track decreases or increases in the rate of the climatic changes presented here.

A new study from the Met Office shows that 40°C in the UK is 20 times more likely today compared with the 60's with a 50/50 chance of reaching 40°C again in the next 12 years. It also suggests that the theoretical maximum possible UK temperature could be around 46°C.

Starmer confirms UK talking to other countries about getting them to host 'return hubs' for refused asylum seekers AT LAST we are using correct language. NOT immigrants, let alone 'illegal' immigrants, but refugees. Can we now recognise the value of genuine immigration alongside how we extend aid?
