The Egyptians may not have had modern science, but they knew how to live sustainably and in harmony with the rhythms of nature. Their civilisation lasted over 3000 years. With all our vast knowledge, we still continue to destroy our only planet and will be lucky to last another century.

"the wife of the US homeland security adviser apparently threatened to denaturalize someone because she didn’t like the fact he criticized her.

This, to be clear, is hardly some one-off. Threatening to deport your critics, even those with American citizenship, seems to be Maga policy now."

Up to 59% of Antarctic ice shelves may be at risk of disappearing under high-emission scenarios by 2300, according to an analysis of the effect of ocean warming in Nature. This could result in up to 10 m of global sea-level rise. go.nature.com/47Ag4k1 🌊 🧪

This is figure 1, which is a schematic of the processes that contribute to the Antarctic ice-shelf mass balance.

Some good progress this week.

Average wholesale electricity prices fell significantly in the September quarter, helped by a surge in renewable energy production, and the rapid growth of battery storage. This will flow through to retail prices - and is a sign of how our modern grid will work.
