Richard Betts needs your help!

As he is wilfully conflating weather with climate, I suggest we all give him a hand, and send him some photos of the floods of 1948, the blizzards of 1963 or innumerable other bad weather events of the past!

Details of how to submit are here:

An invitation to submit photographs to illustrate the impacts of climate change in the UK

Are you a photographer who has a passion for highlighting how climate change is affecting the landscape and bringing risks to how we live in the UK?

A team of experts, commissioned by the Committee on Climate Change (CCC) and led by the University of Exeter in partnership with the Met Office, are currently writing the technical chapters for the 3^rd UK Climate Change Risk Assessment (CCRA3) Evidence Report, to be published in 2021.

We would like to include selected photographs of events or places that illustrate current or potential future impacts of climate change in the four countries of the UK, to provide meaningful context for our research and findings.

Our remit covers the risks and opportunities that changes in UK climate and extreme weather bring to the natural environment, infrastructure, health, communities, the built environment, business and industry, along with the implications for the UK of climate change elsewhere in the world. Photographs illustrating the causes of climate change and measures to address this by moving to a net zero economy would also be of interest.

If you would like to submit photographs that can give a powerful, visual and thought-provoking message to support our writing, we would love to hear from you.

The whole idea, that the landscape looks any different than before because of climate change, is utterly absurd of course.

Shame on the University of Exeter for giving its name to this travesty of science.
