United Kingdom
General community for news/discussion in the UK.
Less serious posts should go in [email protected] or [email protected]
More serious politics should go in [email protected].
Try not to spam the same link to multiple feddit.uk communities.
Pick the most appropriate, and put it there.
Posts should be related to UK-centric news, and should be either a link to a reputable source, or a text post on this community.
Opinion pieces are also allowed, provided they are not misleading/misrepresented/drivel, and have proper sources.
If you think "reputable news source" needs some definition, by all means start a meta thread.
Posts should be manually submitted, not by bot. Link titles should not be editorialised.
Disappointing comments will generally be left to fester in ratio, outright horrible comments will be removed.
Message the mods if you feel something really should be removed, or if a user seems to have a pattern of awful comments.

Oh it's definitely speeding up. Atlantic sea temperature has been flying up this year. The Antarctic sea ice is freezing at an incredibly slow rate, like it's 2 million km^2^ less than where it should be right now.
It feels like we're at the start of a Hollywood disaster film, the scientists running around with printouts of data, but they're not, because they've been warning us for decades and now it's happening.
Yep, I just imagine really depressed climatologists just pointing to things saying 'see, see!'. Everything does seem to be ramping up this year, but then it's been every year basically. We all need to work out how to make a meaningful change before it's too late
If you're interested in up-to-date data on this sort of stuff, Zach Labe has some really great figures on his website: zachlabe.com
(I mean, the figures aren't great because of the ramifications, but they're clear and concise)
Thank you for the info, I'll take a look
