#ClimateDiary Report by German researchers (came out in October, missed it then): climate change is accelerating faster than initially assumed; we cannot exclude 3°C warming by 2050

#ClimateDiary “We have nothing left” Severe floods in Asia kill over 1,000.
The floods and mudslides in Indonesia, Sri Lanka and Thailand in the aftermath of #CycloneDitwah are truly devastating. Yet over here, in the UK, they barely register in the news or people’s consciousness. I have not even brought them up myself in conversation. It is terrible, where we are at.
We need a "Carthago delenda est" for the fossil industry to insert into everything.

#ClimateDiary It’s 8th November, in the UK. All these flowers in our garden still flowering. And indeed, it’s is so warm. It’s crazy!
#ClimateDiary Fundraiser! #Jamaica
My student herself is ok (though it’s been tough), but the place where she stays in the Blue Mountains is completely cut off due to landslides and a collapsed road and bridge. Many people’s coffee crops completely desteoyed, too.
She has set up a fundraiser with local friends to rebuild the bridge. It would be lovely if #ClimateDiary could contribute a little!

#ClimateDiary Really thinking of everyone in Jamaica as the island is bracing itself for #hurricanemelissa
All the more so because I have a PhD student there right now, researching coffee production past and present in the Blue Mountains. She says her building has strong walls but needless to say I am very anxious for her and everyone she is with. Also this year’s coffee harvest! As ever, having a human connection makes it all the more real.

#ClimateDiary The UK #GreenParty now has over 150,000 members- ie we have more than doubled our membership since #ZackPolanski became leader on 2nd September - overtaking first the LibDems, then the Conservatives (who have 124,000) last weekend. I am too tired at the moment to get truly excited, and it’s only the beginning - so much work, so much organising to be done by all of us- but it’s quite something. #UKPolitics
