Climate science editor for @nature. Views my own. Climate podcasts at http://forecastpod.org. Baker, cyclist, recovering academic.
I just finished reading @nature’s special issue content on racism in science. I found it powerful, depressing, uplifting, fascinating, and inspirational. In the hopes that I can tempt you to check out the wide content, here’s a quick🧵on all the content.nature.com/immersive/d428…
I'm incredibly proud to share NeuralGCM, our new AI and physics based approach to weather and climate modeling with state-of-the-art accuracy, published today in @Nature: nature.com/articles/s4158…
Interested in getting together and chatting climate research at @nature? I'll be in Bern June 4-8, Berlin June 9-13, Oxford June 16-21, and London June 24-28. DM if interested!
To anyone who has done so, what's harder: getting a paper into @nature or a crossword into @nytimes?
Have made a tragic error while rearranging travel dates. Will miss seeing @thebandGHOST by ONE DAY. Dang.
Anyone else come down with covid after the @GordonConf on Chemical Oceanography?

I'm going to be in the NE US June/July 2023. Mostly in Maine. Boston area ~ June 19-20. If you're in the area and would like a climate-focused visit from a @nature editor (i.e. me) please feel free to get in touch via DM and I'll try to make it happen.
The absolute dumpster fire that is eClaimsline. My experience exactly .@Chase .@ChaseSupport thepointsguy.com/guide/eclaimsl…
Seeking gardening advice! My Ray Hartman Ceanothus is growing like mad. But on the longer shoots, it has self-pruned aggressively, leaving only a bubble of growth at the tip. Should I prune back, or leave as is?
I am finally contemplating a return to in-person meetings. What climate-heavy meetings or workshops are you stoked to attend, especially those not visible on the usual listings (PAGES, AMS, WRCP, EGU, AGU, Gordon, UN)? Especially interested in NE US, summer 2023. Thanks!
Do you think that recent - and proposed - changes to #twitter could affect science? @annemarieconlon, @MWClimateSci and I discussed our views on @NaturePodcast with Nick Petrić Howe. Take a listen and let us know what you agree - or disagree - with! nature.com/articles/d4158…

We’ve raised a $20M Series A from @Lux_Capital @fifthwallvc @lachygroom @constructcap and many others to accelerate decarbonization in the home. This is in addition to a $5M seed round last year from @Lux_Capital, @constructcap, and @lachygroom. techcrunch.com/2022/11/15/imp…
Best guestimates requested. In 10 years, the average price of sequestering 1 ton of CO2 with 1000-year permanence will be:
Global CO2 emissions from fossil fuels hit a record high in 2022. This is up 1% from 2021, and beats the pre-pandemic highs of 2019, according to the new @gcarbonproject report. @PFriedling and I break down details over at @CarbonBrief: carbonbrief.org/analysis-globa… A thread: 1/x
