in their personal lives. Many people feel committed to climate action because they are recycling or using LED light bulbs, but people also need to consider replacing their boiler with a hydrogen boiler or a heat pump or shifting to an electric vehicle. Even if we are to reach net zero tomorrow, we are still

regions of the world have provided local scientists with the skills and software to generate, analyse and interpret high-resolution climate change scenarios. Carol also works on ongoing collaborations between the Hadley Centre and PRECIS users around the world, which allow us to support and develop

damage. Most of the Met Office’s radomes are geodesic, meaning they have a rounded, curved surface made up of lots of flat hexagons. They look like giant golf balls! Radars are usually maintained by field service engineers, who will spend some of their time working at a field service centre, as well
