Participated at a climate change workshop at Oxford’s School of Engineering yesterday. Unexpected but welcome chance to see and hear about this year’s Formula Student car being built for Silverstone. This year the car is 100% battery powered.

The “Major Oak” in Sherwood Forest. It’s at least 800 and possibly 1200 years old. A nice autumnal day for a visit.

Had the chance to see a bit of Budapest last week. The visit was linked to a forthcoming exhibition on the Museum of Ethnography’s Africa collection which I’m very excited to be involved with. More to follow.

A few years ago, a friend visiting from Ethiopia said to me about the British countryside, ‘I did not know there were so many greens’. Great words and, despite trying, I can do no better.

Oil painting by Winston Churchill, 1916 entitled 'Plug Street' (the British Army's nickname for Ploegsteert, in Flanders). The painting shows the building at Lawrence Farm where Churchill and other officers were billeted.

Last week was London Climate Action Week. Had the opportunity to speak about climate security risk & resilience at several events, including at EU Mission. Climate change impacts everything from geopolitics & military capabilities to economics & health security. We need to prioritise response.
