Beautiful image. Ireland doesn't often look like that in early April.
Blue sky over #UnitedKingdom!
The spring almost cloudfree #Copernicus #Sentinel3 images collected on April 2nd shows green field and awesome shades of Ocean colours surrounding the islands.

I think this is one of my favourite colourful climate chart type things, because it depicts two things at once:
- Things are going to get worse, no matter what
- The degree to which they get worse depends on decisions made today

Crazy high temperatures; as I understand it, we know why it's happening (climate change), but we don't fully understand why it's happening so fast. Scary times!
The Global Climate Highlights 2024 report is now online.

A reminder that Los Angeles had its hottest summer in history last year. Southern California has received just 2% of "normal" rainfall during the current "rainy" season.
These fires are a direct result of a warming & drying atmosphere caused by burning fossil fuels.
We are in a climate emergency.

Increased Renewables + Increased Grid Interconnectivity = more than four
Interconnectors are our friends!
At least #CrossBorderEnergy is expanding but it should focus on electricity infrastructure, not fossil fuel infrastructure.

They've done it! Germany says there is "a need for increased EU funding for cross-border [energy] infrastructure projects, which should be resolved as part of the MFF negotiations." #TTE
€50 billion CEF Energy, here we come!

This is so spot on. As a climate scientist and public intellectual, I see or experience these often

Promising. Seems that getting a large amount of solar is the easiest/cheapest way to increase renewable energy fast.
It is expected that Ireland will generate more electricity from utility-scale solar PV than from coal this year 🌞
And PV installations are growing so quickly (from such a low base) that similar solar power was generated in October this year than June 2023.
SEAI's "Energy in Ireland" is out today.
