🚨The most important graph in the world has another year of data, and it doesn't look good!🚨

NASA CERES satellites measure how much sunlight Earth absorbs and how much heat is radiated back to space.

The difference is heat accumulation, which has more than tripled!

But, ah, surely with the close relationship, based on mutual respect, that Trump and Putin have, this could never happen??

Hold on, what's that?? Putin thinks Trump is a necrotic paedophile he can run rings round??

Ah, yes, well... Awkward.

US grants waiver to allow India to buy Russian oil amid Iran war β€˜Stopgap measure’ designed to keep oil flowing into global market as Middle East crisis disrupts crude shipments

I know it's a crazy idea, but maybe we could get India some oil from somewhere other than Russia??

You know, what with them being a rogue, aggressor state, and all??

I don't suppose that would keep Vlad & Don happy, would it??

Saturday morning, Trend Setters... 😎

A lovely, sunny stroll along the canal - Chalford - Oakridge...

Saw a grey heron, a fat frog at the side of the road and - most importantly - a dipper!! 😁
