I’m simply horrified to see @NHSEngland now literally breaking the law in how it misrepresents physician associates & other allied health professional - who are NOT doctors - to the public. These posters are from the Bradford District & Craven Health & Care Partnership. 1/n

I've been at @wcdp2023 this week presenting this @ukswarm project DROWN-ICU looking at intensive care admissions from drowning in SW England. Excellent to meet experts from around the world (and a koala!) - some exciting collaborations on the way. #WCDP2023

A typical European car is parked 92% of the time. It spends 1/5th of its driving time looking for parking. Its 5 seats only move 1.5 people. 86% of its fuel never reaches the wheels, & most of the energy that does, moves the car, not people. Sound efficient? HT @circulareconomy

A common confusion is that to decarbonise, the world will need to produce the equivalent of coal, oil & gas in the form of low-carbon energy. That's not true. Most fossil energy gets wasted. In the US, just one-third gets turned into useful services. The rest is wasted as heat.

Some doors require printed instructions to operate, while others are so poorly designed that they lead people to do the exact opposite of what they need to in order to open them. Their shapes or...

I had no idea! Great blog post explaining it all too
Last year we spent ~£1bn turning OFF wind turbines because the grid couldn't cope with the amount of wind energy in the system. We've been digging into how, why, and when this happens https://t.co/Ycc51XUeVD Live monitor for wind turbine curtailment:
