Why not both?
A short report from today's #Software #Freedom Day event in #Wellington, which at times had a small cross-over with #Talk like a #Pirate day.

'Researchers analysed #tide gauges recorded between 1900 and 2005 and used #climate simulations to identify the influence of human activity on #flooding due to sea level rise at 130 sites around the world.

'For nearly half the sites, floods of the size that had a 1 percent chance of happening there during the year 1900 became at least 10 times more likely to happen in a year by 2005, mostly due to human activity.

'However, in some locations like #Wellington, the increase in flood likelihood was many times higher.

'The authors argued this was direct evidence human-driven climate change had already increased coastal flood risk, and it was crucial flood protection planning used up-to-date flood frequency estimates.'

Truly multimodal, how all routes everywhere should be… although the cars should be last priority, not first as seen here. I’ll take it though since it’s far better than the alternative. Train line is hidden behind the trees.

Pictured here riding in Lower Hutt on the way home from an errand, carrying a napping Mr. 1.75, two 15L bags of sand to top up his sandpit, 10L of paint for our new boundary fence, one volume of one of my favourite novel series,* water for us both and the leftovers of lunch for us both.
