With 2024 set to go down as the hottest year on record, we know that what is coming is truly horrifyingThe past 12 months have seen our world enter new territory. Last year will go down as the first time that the global average temperature exceeded 1.5C above preindustrial times over a calendar year. We could crash permanently through the 1.5C guardrail within the next five years, and shatter the 2C limit as soon as 2034. This will almost certainly result in the tipping points for collapse of the Greenland and west Antarctic ice sheets being crossed, committing us to the drowning of coastal towns and cities.In years to come, we will look back at this time and ask the same question that future generations will ask: why didn’t we stop this catastrophe?Bill McGuire is professor emeritus of geophysical and climate hazards at UCL and author of Hothouse Earth: an Inhabitant’s GuideRoger Hallam is co-founder of Extinction Rebellion, Insulate Britain and Just Stop Oil Continue reading...

63 minutes ago I’m not one for new year’s resolutions – except when it comes to my garden

With a new year comes new plans, but don’t forget to relax in and enjoy your garden at this time of year, tooI don’t love gardening to-do lists – they make it feel too much like work – but I do think there’s value in thinking about what you’d like to do with your garden this year. Perhaps you haven’t been out in it for weeks, or maybe just for a few minutes here and there, to add the sprout leaves to the compost bin. But while January might be the sleepiest time in the garden – perhaps a snowdrop swelling somewhere, but otherwise fallen leaves and perennials tucked well beneath the earth – it’s still the start of a new year.I have never been a huge one for new year resolutions, but I make gentle exceptions for my garden.
