🚨Just published in time for #COP26 and made it to the front page of the @guardian (okay small but still!). theguardian.com/world/2021/n… How warming from flying can stop right now, with only small reductions. But we need a change of direction now, growth is not sustainable. 1/2

Flying✈️contributed 4% to #globalwarming, and back-to-normal after COVID means 6-17% in 2050. Why aviation's CO₂ footprint is only ½ the story, COVID's impact, and how to fly net zero. We quantify aviation's contribution, preprint doi.org/10.1002/essoar.10507… summary thread🧵here 1/n

Attending #vEGU21 this year? You've just saved many million kg of carbon by not flying to Vienna 🥳EGU would have emitted 25,000,000 kgCO2 by the end of next week: 26kg every second due to attendees flying in long-haul. The carbon clock is ticking...

Wow indeed! It’s been incredible to see how far @OxClimateSoc has come in the 4 years since @HeilmannFelix @recyclops98 and I began planning how to grow a society which was then small enough to hold its events in a room above a central-Oxford cafe. Congrats to everyone involved!
Wow. I just learned that the Oxford School of Climate Change, organized by @OxClimateSoc, has 1400 students enrolled this term! Biggest course run at Oxford in 900 years? oxfordclimatesociety.com/the…
