Word of the Day is one I keep posting at the end of the year, hoping its time will come.
‘Respair’, from the 16th century, is fresh hope, and a recovery from despair.
Here’s to a few drops of respair in 2025.

Very sorry to hear about flooding in Greater Manchester.
Greater Manchester is pretty much all in the Mersey river basin. It’s a tricky catchment, with lots of small rivers (and lots of stuff built near rivers for industrial reasons)

Fascinating.
This is a fascinating photo showing the turbulent wakes from wind turbines churning the air over the North Sea and how this can affect downwind turbines.
These wakes can be kilometres long but are usually invisible. Why have they formed lines of clouds in this case?

HP's do work if designed and installed correctly.
'Salespeople' will sell their products - more training is needed in this sector.
You shouldn't buy a HP from one sitting of a 'salespersons sales pitch'. Get an independent survey with heat loss calcs and current insulation/requirements.

While families across the UK face the 'heating or eating' crisis of soaring energy bills, in Spain they have the challenge of dealing with 'energy abundance' after the government carried out regulatory reform and offered subsidies for the renewables sector www.bbc.co.uk/news/article...
Too much of a good thing? Spain's green energy can exceed demand
Spain is looking at storing electricity or increasing demand to solve electricity oversupply.

I have never liked the concept of Carbon Offsetting as it's too easy an option for many to take!
A decarbonisation strategy, energy reduction plan, Scope Emissions reporting should be the default position for all.

We have officially advised our university to ditch carbon offsets – and focus on cutting emissions
Your organisation should probably ditch offsets too.
