Second 4hr30m+ yomp today. Same distance (basically to Stafford and back), but carrying an extra house brick (in a back pack) this time. Will increase the distance, and the weight. In future will make sure to be carrying enough water (today ah depended upon the kindness of strangers...) Anyhoos, right at the end, just as... Continue Reading →

You can read the report here https://cliccs.uni-hamburg.de/about-cliccs/news/2023-news/2023-01-31-pm-climate-futures-outlook.html… We're just not acting fast enough.

Video: Neologism of the day – “Decruitment”
I have made up a bunch of words (smugosphere, emotacycle, egofodder etc) to try to label phenomena that are easily missed if you don't have the vocabulary (I missed them for decades, until the penny dropped). I am going to make a video for each and - ideally- put them on Twitter. But at the... Continue Reading →
Dr Juggles and the Energy Quadrilemma
Using juggling as a metaphor for dealing not only with the energy "trilemma" - of security of supply, price and climate change, but the energy quadrilemma - all the other environmental problems too... Rough as a badger's... bottom, but you get the idea. You're allowed to a) laugh (at/with/whatever - we all need a laugh)... Continue Reading →
Looting the Ivory Tower: “Intersectionality & #Climate Justice: A call for synergy in climate change scholarship.”
I have a template now, and a rhythm that works for me. Here's the latest. Tell me what you think, how they could be improved (highlighting words in the quotes when I am reading aloud would be one thing. Leaving out some of the 'comic' asides would be another.

Looting the Ivory Tower: “Towards more impactful energy research”
So, I am going to make short (under 2min 20sec) films about academic articles I have read. This will be under the heading "Looting the Ivory Toewer." It will help me solidify the concepts and empirics, and also improve my video/presentation skills. May help other folks, dunno. This first one is a bit rough, but... Continue Reading →
New video: #climate and energy policies of the UK become entwined, 2000 to 2009…

Videos abt useful concepts: Biographical Availability
Gonna make videos about "useful" concepts - the ones that I seem to come back to time and again. Have downloaded Openshot, am gonna fire up my Paint skills (and maybe some Gimping).
