I've been meaning to do something with this image for ages...
Coming into breeding colours. One of our 'Global warming' success stories, with numbers rising year-on-year since they first bred here back in 2012.
For the Great White Egret colonies on the Avalon Marshes, 2024 was another record-breaking year, with 100 young fledged from 54 nests !!

'Bug of the Day'... Classed as a 'Rare vagrant', we had at least five males and one female which was observed mating and ovipositing at Knighton reserve in Dorset today. A sign of Global warming...

I`m noticing almost every year now that August is almost certain to be a washout? More consistant with rain, more frequent and more powerful thunder storms and a frequent drop in temperatures, it could be far worse but are these events real changes in our climate in the UK? Makes for fantastic Photography opportunities though.
... and we do behave
as if we were the last
to switch off the light
on this beautiful blue planet ...

in Venice we can forget automobiles, doesn't fit there - maybe global warming in the very future will give this experience to some other cities too :-)

In the air at 10:45 on a Monday morning. Just a snapshot of a moment in time, and so it goes on and on. Makes you think doesn't it.
And they blame us for leaving our tv's on standby!!

What Daniel Sherrell and his activist friends call The Problem is global warming, which they see as looming more and more over everything, yet it continues to be ignored by most politicians and governments, while they may sometimes pretend to do something minimal to delay it. Copied on an iPad from the Kindle edition.
"This is the 26th edition of the annual assessment now known as State of the Climate. The year 2015 saw the toppling of several symbolic mileposts: notably, it was 1.0°C warmer than preindustrial times, and the Mauna Loa observatory recorded its first annual mean carbon dioxide concentration greater than 400 ppm.
An international, peer-reviewed publication released each summer, the State of the Climate is the authoritative annual summary of the global climate published as a supplement to the Bulletin of the American Meteorological Society. The report, compiled by NOAA’s Center for Weather and Climate at the National Centers for Environmental Information is based on contributions from scientists from around the world. It provides a detailed update on global climate indicators, notable weather events, and other data collected by environmental monitoring stations and instruments located on land, water, ice, and in space."

******************
"Last year was unequivocally the warmest year on record for Earth. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration Tuesday released a 300-page report documenting the historic warmth as well as scores of other aspects of 2015’s climate. The hefty report, State of the Climate in 2015, was produced by more than 450 scientists from 62 countries around the world — more than any previous edition. [...] 2015’s exceptional warmth was fueled by a record-challenging El Niño event, in which warmer-than-normal tropical Pacific Ocean waters infused heat into the atmosphere, and by record-setting concentrations of heat-trapping gases from human activity. [...] The atmospheric concentration of carbon dioxide, for the first time, surpassed 400 parts per million in modern record. Methane and nitrous oxide, additional heat-trapping gases released into the atmosphere through human activity, also set record highs."
