Climate notes for March 8th 2024
For the first time in months my family and I are heading down to our holiday spot on the south coast of Ireland. The weather will be mild, but being near the sea and connecting to the world a bit will be a huge mental break. And it makes me wonder how long this will be possible as we boil the oceans and choke our ecosystems out. My children may never get to do this with their grandchildren, given the accelerated timelines.
