    Prices of the electricity we use to charge

    i I don't think that can be correct - although I do think 2023 will be a record - this from a source I trust at the end of October Edited to add - it isn't correct - Bill McKibben is referencing some weird hybrid data set from Eliot Jacobson that looks nothing like any of the other surface or...

    Alternative motors for Eleglide City Crosser

    Is it just a standard 9 pin connector from the rear hub ? I guess you could possibly just use any rear hub motor and wheel ? Are the dropouts standard ? What happened ? Was it an accident? Is there a reason you are not claiming on the guarantee ?

    There was a rather good link from the BBC article to this blog post It compared the cmip6 models (that include some with high 5 deg c climate sensitivities) with the previous version cmip5 models, which seems to be doing a better overall job so far, slightly under predicting the current trend

    Woosh BBTS 68mm kit starts shipping

    @Woosh - do you know what the power % on this for each assist level - I'm fair wooshing along, even up some smallish inclines in pas level 1 - I was doubting the speedo read out , but checked it today against gps - it is correct. Maybe the larger 48t front cog is helping my pedalling effort...

    Bought a few things off AliExpress - battery mount, hydraulic brakes, tools, Bafang rear hub kit (came from Poland but was significantly cheaper than ebay)- all been fine so far - no duty to pay so far. Try to use trusted retailers, topbikekit, greenergy etc where I can

    Mahle 30 system derestrict.

    Mahle x30 ? I've heard of the x20 and x35 but not x30. https://mahle-smartbike.com/x20/ https://mahle-smartbike.com/x35/ There does look like aftermarket speed derestrict devices but they look very expensive, probably void the warranty and would be illegal unless insured / registered...

    Woosh BBTS 68mm kit starts shipping

    Just one tweak that I made, so to recap I got rid of the front derailleur and chose the 48t front cog that came with the kit (you can choose a smaller cog). I noticed when I was using the highest gear (11t cog) that it was occasionally slipping. I wasn't sure what was doing this, if it was the...

    Who knows - makes a better headline ? Get more clicks ? - I never trust journalists to accurately report science - have a look at The Telegraph, Times, Express, Spectator, Mail reporting !

    GRL Paper ....Global mean temperatures averaged for the last 25 years (1980–2004) over land and ocean were 0.38 ± 0.14°C and 0.19 ± 0.06°C respectively, above the 1961–90 climatology. These numbers suggest a warming ratio of ∼2.0...

    Yes - thanks - that is the link that I followed - that is to a news report on a wmo report : https://public.wmo.int/en/media/press-release/new-report-shows-impacts-of-climate-change-and-extreme-weather-latin-america-and I skim read the wmo report and I don't think it makes any such claim -...

    OK - bear in mind it takes a little time to look at each link Africa WMO "State of the Climate in Africa 2022" https://library.wmo.int/records/item/58070-state-of-the-climate-in-africa-2021#.Y2E5kezMJR4 So that included a useful graph which I think answers your original riddle If you look...

    My source is NASA https://earthobservatory.nasa.gov/world-of-change/global-temperatures You'd have to look exactly what each claim is based on - I suspect news channels are incorrectly summarising scientific research but I will have a look at some of those links

    Prices of the electricity we use to charge

    Don't think I have attempted to answer that question. Could you link to one particular claim ? Around the equator warms least quickly and the poles most, (and I guess most people live a fair distance from the equator) but I would be surprised if there's a lot of difference. I have a vague...

    2015 !! Here is the relevant section of IPCC AR6 WG1 (2021) https://www.ipcc.ch/report/ar6/wg1/chapter/chapter-2/#2.3.1.1#2.3.1.1.2 Looks like a raft of subsequent studies showing Mann was correct and his critics were wrong

    1) All there graphs are temperature anomaly not actual temperature ( so temperature difference against a baseline period) 2) There aren't actual thermometers on these MSU satellites, they infer the temperatures from irradiance for different levels of the atmosphere. The lowest level of the...

    It doesn't matter, you are being fed a line by people that know it doesn't matter. This has been done to death by climate sceptics. There are tens of thousands of temperature measuring stations across the world, you actually need only around 80 to do a global temperature reconstruction as...

    Pointless questioning the historical surface temperature record. It has been reproduced many times using many different sets of stations using different methodologies by different groups and it always ends up with nearly identical answers. In fact the Cowtan and Way "independent" analysis...
