Great to see #Geothermal Energy being recognised as a way to respondto #ClimateEmergency in The Chronicle's article about work of Prof Jon Gluyas and Dr Charlotte Adams @DEI_Durham Warm water in old coal mines could be used for a very useful reason chroniclelive.co.uk/news/nor…

You bobby-dazzlers! Congratulations from everyone at CSM 🏆🥇🙂
Another official milestone.......the deepest onshore hole in the UK! Drilling reached 4,201 m today breaking the depth record! Temperatures are looking great, now we go into the fracture zone! #geothermal #deepgeothermal #UDDGP #geology #drilling #faultfinding #energy #renewables

Every year, 1.4 billion mobile phones are produced around the world. Many of us have more than one, but what are they made of, where do those materials come from, and what is the best thing to do with our devices once we have no more use for them?

British PM says that the children on school strike are “wasting lesson time”. That may well be the case. But then again, political leaders have wasted 30 yrs of inaction. And
