I had a hot tip there were nesting Rainbow Bee-eaters down by the ferry terminal at work. So at lunchtime I went for a wander, and the tipster was not wrong.

#ClimateDiary Where are your pension funds invested? For most public sector workers it’s impossible to extricate themselves from all this - this sector needs regulation SO bad.

Private equity firms swoop in “as large oil and gas firms seek to shed older and dirtier assets and the bigger banks increasingly regard them as risky investments. […]!some of the dirtiest assets have come to be owned by relatively obscure investment outfits, the report says.” #PrivateEquity

Israeli military says they will conduct “powerful strikes” throughout the Middle East tonight after Tehran launched nearly 200 missiles at Israel.

Iran says the strikes were a “legitimate response” following the assassination of multiple Hamas and Hezbollah leaders.

Speaking at a televised address several hours after the attack, Netanyahu said Iran had made a "big mistake" and will "pay for it," adding: “Those who attack us; we attack them.”

This passage from the new book ‘Character Limit’ by Kate Conger and Ryan Mac about the Twitter deal a couple of years ago is…a thing, I guess.

“The world was suffering from a severe underpopulation crisis, Musk told the audience, and the only way to start a colony on Mars would be to have more children.”

I was also alerted to some freshly hatched Bush Stone-curlew chicks on campus. They're very tiny and super cute, but also quite shy.
