Free heating courtesy of big lumps of bituminous coal collected from the tide line at North Gare beach this afternoon. Burns like old fashioned house coal and smells lovely.

Science is very clear. It’s not net zero in 2050 that must be the headline goal, but cutting emissions before then, including 50% cut by 2030. Delaying action deepens peril for our children & grandchildren. Think Libya, Greece, mass migration & all the rest, & on a massive scale.

Rishi Sunak is poised to water down some of the government’s biggest net zero commitments, including plans to phase out the installation of new gas boilers and delaying a ban on the sale of new diesel and petrol cars thetimes.co.uk/article/rishi-…

On this year’s Merchant Navy Day we want to remind seafarers that they are seen, and we are, as always, hugely grateful for everything they do. We will be flying the Red Ensign in support and recognition of their incredible service today. #Seafarer #MerchantNavyDay #RedEnsign

A wander around the back of Cross Fell today to find the source of the River Tees. Apparently this stone marks the official start although managed to find running water a 100yds or so higher up towards the plateau. Stunning landscape.

This is critical to Teesside. The Chemical Industries Association, representing one of the country’s biggest exporting sectors, reported a sharp decline in sales in the last quarter of 2022.


Teesmouth this afternoon. Several dozen oyster catchers, sanderlings and a solitary friendly red shank foraging by the rising tide. Incoming ship is the LNG carrier JS Alular. Wonderful.
