Thanks @nzpmsciprizes @royalsocietynz @ChiefSciAdvisor on behalf of the TEAM for šacknowledgement of our research. Its due to the awesome team we have in NZ, and realise there is a lot more work to do. #ClimateEmergency @AntarcticaNZ @VicUniWgtn @gnsscience @niwa_nz @SCAR_Tweets.
And finally, the winners of the 2019 Prime Minister's Science Prize are the āMelting Ice and Rising Seasā team - led by Prof Tim Naish! This team has made groundbreaking discoveries on how Antarctic melt could contribute to sea level rise š MÄ«haro! š #Aroha #NZPMSciPrizes

Thatās great Matt! Good luck to you and the @ICCInet pavilion because BOLD action is required. As I pointed out the article below is based on a collective call to ACTION from @WCRP_climate @SCAR_Tweets @ISC @ICCInet. Decision makers must ACT NOW. @COP28_UAE.
Important push on climate action here from @naish_tim. This message is not just Tim's. At COP28 I and many others @ICCInet will be repeating many times the critical need to stay below 1.5C. COP28: Earthās frozen zones are in trouble - are we listening?.

4 billion people at risk from sea level rise, melting glaciers and fresh water availability. The polar ice sheets, glaciers, and Arctic permafrost all have irreversible thresholds at 1.5-2C of global warming.
There is no more time because you canāt negotiate with the melting point of ice Read the TC piece and reports and decs therein and get your decision makers to act now. @ICCInet @AntaPlatform @SCAR_Tweets @CliC_WCRP @ISC @COP28_UAE.

I'm currently far away from work (thank you @ConversationEDU for the time off to join @SWAIS2C), but here's our newsletter, leading with @naish_tim's piece about the #cryosphere - polar ice sheets, ice shelves, sea ice, mountain glaciers and permafrost
