#ClimateDiary #Harvest 2/2 One reason being that harvests are increasingly affected by climate change; they be taken for granted less than ever. UK harvests alone are terrible this year - wheat, carrots (a whole feature on this on Farming Today
a few days ago), wine and more.

All the more reason to be grateful for what you and celebrate #HarvestFestivals

#ClimateDiary Today it’s our children’s school #Harvest Festival - they have to bring in foods in their house colours for a food bank. I am also on my to give a talk at the New School of the Anthropocene today, and my last, “coda” slide is on Harvest festivals. Harvest festivals are celebrated everywhere around the world, and i am thinking about them a lot today. 1/2
