This. And I'll add that the more nations in which the above ideas (particularly the anti-science part) have that power, the more at risk our species is of turning down a very, very dark road. Within the lifetimes of most people who contribute on here.

Repeated for emphasis.

Because direct discussion of certain areas of UK politics appear to be hot button matters that result in that, even if the discussion appears to be civil. Of course, I hope it's not the case here though.

Exactly, and I'll add that the effect of Reform winning in the UK will be broadly similar to what is going on now in the US. Do people really want a piece of that? Also, in b4 the lock.

Also, when was the last time Bumrah bowled three no balls in one over?

Come on Harry, focus. You're better than that.

That ball from Bumrah to Duckett just now was unreal.

That's reverse psychology that @Izzy would blush at

OK, perhaps I was wrong about there being mostly results in this series.

How about we call this system "GW"?

Poor way for it to end, really. Evidently a little more work to be done regarding mentality at the business end of big matches.

Knife edge match, this.

Well, they brought that innings to a close as quickly as could be expected. Opened up some more possibilities from here.

When Lehecka is serving like that first set, though...

In terms of titles and rankings, I think he's done as much as Henman did already, and look at the attention he got every year.

Jack started pretty below par here.

I believe this point of view has cropped up here before, and I think the rebuttal remains the same. If the style of playing change gets this team to push on and do better than they're doing now, fair enough. But those pining for older styles might be reminded that this Test team won one Test in 17 before this style of play was implemented.

East Asia come summertime is utterly awful in that regard. Air conditioning is a necessity over there. The UK is on the trajectory to be similar. Soon.

Agreed. 30 degrees C dry heat is alright, 30% humidity at that temperature isn't great, 60% and above is just brutal.

Coral skeletons and pollen remains, to name two more. And on the contrary, all of those sources provide a great deal of data that shows both historical temperature levels and air chemical composition very clearly.

I absolutely agree that the recognition and action on this matter needs to be global. However, the first article shows rather clearly that those certain Western figures are about as much use in that regard as a chocolate fireguard.

On the main topic of emissions and commensurate temperature increase, thankfully quite a few sources supply a wealth of information going back at least that far.

Yeah, I think people in the UK like the idea of nice toasty heat as long as they can then have a break from it.

Changes in temperature that cause tree ring effects are, in part, caused by emissions that then reach and effect the stratosphere. It does therefore give more information on a small part of the puzzle.
