Some (good) personal news - I am so happy to share that today is my first day at Climate Central (as a Climate Scientist).

Ready to move the science and communication of it forward in this crucial moment. Follow our work on climate services and attribution at https://www.climatecentral.org/.

Climate Central

Climate Central researches and reports on the impacts of climate change, including sea level rise and coastal flooding, extreme weather and weather attribution, global warming and local temperature trends, carbon dioxide and greenhouse gas emissions.

Instead of storing my data in the cloud, I just store it in the bush. It's the same thing, only palette-swapped. More accessible, too.
