"the 21st century professor is more of a small business owner, dealing with immense administrative burdens like hiring & time sheets, reimbursements, purchasing, health and safety, scheduling exams, financial reporting, teaching assistant duty forms, & so on"

I could have written this post myself
Tracking my work hours reveals a crisis brewing in academia. Being a successful academic shouldn't require us to also be an accountant, HR manager, safety coordinator, travel agent, etc. #WorkLifeBalance #academia

Many cannot comprehend how the LA fire could happen in winter, or understand the link to climate change.

The scientific community is so disconnected from news outlets, leading to public uncertainty on the climate.

We need News Literacy Education, yesterday.

The media needs to show how the climate crisis is fueling the LA wildfires
With few exceptions, the news has shied away from showing how the unfolding climate crisis plays a large role in the disaster

Seasonal changes in UK rainfall since 1836

The UK has become ~15% wetter in the last two centuries, mainly in the winter and autumn, even though the wettest year on record is 1872.

Summers have become very slightly drier overall (mainly in the south), even though the driest year on record is 1855.

Changes in global mean surface temperature since 1850

Two styles of visualisation to show the six main datasets.

Which do you prefer? One set of axes or small multiples?

[Note: this uses the WMO approach to offsetting the datasets from pre-industrial. Thanks to @micefearboggis.bsky.social.]

The data is in. 2024 was the warmest year on record, and probably in the whole of human history – about 1.6°C warmer than the pre-industrial period.

More than 1 billion individual thermometer measurements, made by thousands of people over many decades, have been condensed into a single number.
