This blog may help people explore some of the 'hidden' issues involved in certain media treatments of environmental and scientific issues. Using personal digital images, it's also intended to emphasise seasonal (and other) changes in natural history of the Swansea (South Wales) area. The material should help participants in field-based modules and people generally interested in the natural world. The views are wholly those of the author.

Enjoying the Unseasonal Sunshine?
It's late October. This weekend, however, in parts of the UK, Germany, France and elsewhere, temperatures are predicted to reach circa 20 degrees Centigrade (https://www.theguardian.com/uk-news/2022/oct/27/climate-crisis-fuelling-unseasonably-warm-october-in-uk-and-europe-say-experts). These unseasonally high temperatures are carried in (as normal) by the jet stream. Experts agree, however, that the 'climate change' is intensifying the jet stream's impact. It's sad that a pleasant, sunny weekend has now to be treated with suspicion. It quite ruins my sunny disposition.
