Thinking of doing a PhD or postdoc? #1 Tip: Find a good supervisor. Do some research on your supervisor before you start doing research with your supervisor. This will be the most important decision in your whole PhD or postdoc. #PhDchat #PhDforum #ECRchat #postdoc #MRes

3 lessons here: 1/ fossil asset owners will keep these assets as long as gov'ts will let them. 2/ oil and gas net zero pledges are an elaborate distraction -- both for ESG optimists and consumers 3/ liberals take note: the market won't supply decarbonization. www.theguardian.com/business/202...

🧪⚒️ Permanent ice caps have been quite rare in geological history. This new study suggests that's because you need to right combination of paleogeography, exposed lithology, and plate tectonic configuration, all working in the same direction to reduce atmospheric CO2, to get into an icehouse.
