Thanks Gerry for your kind comment - I suspect there are many others who take the opposite view over my public engagement.
@KevinClimate @janevandis Kevin, thank you so much for that. As the situation seems to be more rapidly evolving than previously thought, more from you in a public manner can only be but good. You are generous with your insights & your time & thank you for that.

Thanks to those who joined the zoom Q&A. Apologies to those unable to join via Youtube; there was a technical glitch on Zoom that wouldn't permit it to link to Youtube. If there is sufficient interest, I'm happy to run another Q&A; just let me know by replying to this message.

Just to confirm, it is 8pm UK time, 19.00 GMT.
