At the base of Antarctica’s ice, an area the size of Germany and France combined is feeding meltwater into a super-pressurized, 290-mile-long river running to the sea which isn't great for sea-level rise. wired.trib.al/TqUlKuN

Cape Town’s National Library - I’ve been loving to be able to work in so many beautiful spaces surrounded by old books. In the middle of the city! It’s free!

I am going to start posting names of companies which send me spam emails in breach of POPI. Clearly buying personal information. I expect their Information Officers to take action! Today: David van Schoor from Voyc! @voyc_ai

Is it not possible to make the queues for birth certificates easier for mothers. It’s heartbreaking seeing new moms standing with babies in the heat waiting to register them. Shaded areas, benches, baby friendly toilets?? Come on @HomeAffairsSA

Reading the load shedding torment. If you have any way to fund solar, do it. Take your geysers to gas. I have zero idea when there is load shedding. A 200 sq meter house is About R200k max -off grid.

My favourite thing about Eskom loadshedding announcements is how they always urge us to use electricity sparingly. WHAT ELECTRICITY?
