We're proud to announce we're moving away from investment in fossil fuels. By 2025, we'll divest from companies whose primary business is the ownership and exploitation of fossil fuels as part of our commitment to being a world-leader in climate science. https://t.co/g7PURCoTyV

December #solstice tonight: that implies 24-hour day daylight 🌞 across the Antarctica 🇦🇶, but often still with a strong daily cycle in sunlight intensity. #rayshader

"‘Het gaat het voorstellingsvermogen een beetje te boven’, zegt Van den Broeke. ‘Met een vertaalslag naar Olympische zwembaden red je dit niet meer.’" Ook de @volkskrant schrijft over de @nature-publicatie van vandaag:

21 bergen zo groot als de Mount Everest. Of een vierkant blok ijs van 1 kubieke kilometer, en dat keer 3.800. Zo groot is de totale ijsmassa die sinds 1992 wegsmolt van Groenland, blijkt uit een...

60 years of the Antarctic Treaty! today is Antarctica Day! #OnThisDay #OTD in 1959, 12 countries agreed to set aside #Antarctica “for peaceful purposes only”, as a scientific preserve for "the progress of all mankind”. Today 54 nations are party to the Treaty.

Aurora is de Romeinse godin van de zonsopkomst, ze rijdt voor de zon uit langs de hemel, om hem aan te kondigen. Als dichters in het oude Rome over de "rozige vingers" van Aurora schreven, bedoelden ze haar kleurenspel tegen de nog donkere ochtendhemel. Je weet wat Borealis is.

"She's going down!" Shackleton shouted #OnThisDay #OTD in 1915 Endurance finally sank beneath the sea ice of the Weddell Sea, all survived. Built in Norway in 1912, the ship was sold to Shackleton in 1914. "Fortitudine vincimus" (By endurance we conquer) - Shackleton family motto

Look at all that ice -on land and sea- if the greenhouse gases were gone!
What would happen if you suddenly removed all the greenhouse gases from the atmosphere? This animation by @CColose shows that icy regions would expand to cover large parts of the planet and global temperature would drop by about 30°C.

The race to the South Pole! #OnThisDay #OTD in 1911, Robert Falcon Scott left the Cape Evans Hut on Ross Island, to begin his journey to the Pole. Amundsen had begun 13 days beforehand from the Bay of Whales, a location 96km closer to the Pole, photo @scottpolar

Het is vandaag 9200 dagen geleden dat Paars I geïnstalleerd werd. Sindsdien zijn jullie 7870 dagen onderdeel geweest van de regering. Jullie zijn de architect van dit probleem.
Vandaag demonstreren de bouwers. Zij maken zich zorgen, dat begrijpen we. Kamerlid @MarkHarbers werkt aan een oplossing. Want we moeten doorpakken. Meer info 👉 https://t.co/RtwNLN5YrJ
