BREAKING: the White Cliffs of Dover have been illuminated with the UK 'warming stripes' for #ShowYourStripes day! These stripes represent the UK average temperature from 1884 to 2022 with blue colours for colder years and red colours for hotter years. ShowYourStripes.info

Wow, what an amazing response! Through @MicropscopeHomes 112 people will measure airborne #microplastics in their homes. This data will build an understanding of how many airborne microplastics there are, what they are made of and how we can reduce them.
