For #ShowYourStripes, I chatted about the Climate Stripes with the Totally Cooked podcast team (@sarahinscience.bsky.social and @instrachan.bsky.social). Find it on your favourite podcast channel! 21centuryweather.org.au/totally-cook...

@sarahinscience.bsky.social on undermining CSIRO's ACCESS(AustralianCommunity Climate& Earth System Simulator) model "To put it as bluntly as I can, this is serious shit. If we don't hv an Australian climate model, we are shooting ourselves in the foot when it comes to adapting to climate change."

Yung En Chee@yungenchee.bsky.social · 3mo ago

Australia is the only country with climate modelling focused on the southern hemisphere. “These cuts will make us suboptimal in core climate science capability in atmospheric and oceanographic modelling, and in understanding the concepts that really drive our weather and climate.”

so I haven't posted here in AGES, but thought I'd sure my recent TEDx talk. Would do it again in a heart beat! It's on why net zero is no longer enough, and that adaption is imperative. Massive shout-out to the ACCESS climate model, which is under grave threat. www.youtube.com/watch?v=XXJL...

Yeah......this ain't a great forecast. Word on the street it will rival the heatwaves of 2009 and 1939. Some inland parts of Australia will get into the high 40s. The last i checked, some models were Predicting low 50s in some inland places. Im really nervous about this one. #heatwave #Australia

It's 28 degrees at 8.30am in #Canberra. My girls are making the most of outside time while they can. A north-westerly is getting stronger -not good for fire weather. Fingers crossed we see this thru unscathed. Thinking of everyone affected by the #Victorianfires.

Current conditions in #Canberra, sun set roughly and hour ago We are 600m above sea level - would be roughly 6deg hotter if we had no elevation.

the @australia.theguardian.com published an oped by me today. This heatwave is bad. The bushfires it is enabling are also bad. Climate scientists & meteorologists are incredibly concerned about the next 48 hours. And this is just a taste of what's to come. www.theguardian.com/commentisfre...

As a climate scientist, I know heatwaves in Australia will only get worse. We need to start preparing now | Sarah Perkins-Kirkpatrick

During black summer, my daughters were too young to know what was happening. Now, amid another Australian heatwave, they deserve answers

View from my front yard in #CANBERRA this afternoon. The fire is 300km away, in Victoria. Much of Australia is currently in a heatwave, in some places the hottest temps for >15 years. Cool change forcasted in south-east from tomorrow onwards, but this is a recipe for disaster for firefighting

So devastating 😢 Emma was a fabulous all-rounder. Terrific scientist, articulate Communicator, brilliant advocate for women in science. She will be deeply missed. theconversation.com/emma-johnsto...

Emma Johnston was a visionary scientist, environmentalist and leader, with an abiding hope for humanity

The University of Melbourne Vice-Chancellor, who has died aged 52, was driven by a deep love of science and a desire to safeguard the planet’s future.

🚨New paper on heatwaves in a net zero world 🚨 In our study, led by @sarahinscience.bsky.social, we find that the intensity, length and frequency of heatwaves do not return to pre-industrial levels under net zero - and in many regions barely improve at all. iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1...

Our research on the emissions & projected impacts of new fossil fuel projects has been making news this week. Joined by my co-authors @andrewkingclimate.bsky.social @raindrop-herder.bsky.social, we take a deeper look on the latest episode of Totally Cooked. Available wherever you get your podcasts

For so long, fossil fuel projects have said their contribution to climate change is "negligible". Turns out that's wrong. Our research in NPJ Climate Action proves it. Every tonne of CO2 matters. @21stcenturyweather.bsky.social @minderoo.bsky.social #climatechange www.nature.com/articles/s44...

It's mother's day here in Australia. 🇦🇺 Here's my wish-list, according to my 8 year old. She's not wrong 😂🥰

HUGE sigh of relief here in Australia! We've said NO to the conservatives. Actually, not just no, we've given them the middle finger and ran as fast as we could in the opposite direction. There's no way they'll win now. Even Dutton lost his seat....GOOOOOONE!! Byeeeee, Felicia 👋

6yo:"mum did you go to university?" Me [thinking this is my moment to shine & discuss how women can achieve great things]: "yes. I have the highest level of education! Its called a PhD!" 6yo: "who is the tallest person at your work?" Clearly we're not quite ready for this type of conversation yet 😂

Yet another beautiful and warm yet highly unseasonal day here in Canberra. Normally by now we've had frost, with chilly nights and mornings. There's a saying here that you should not your heater on before ANZAC day (April 25). Snowballs chance in hell of heaters being turned on early this year ☀️🌡😕
