So the UK Met Office is inviting people to suggest up to 5 names for storms. And apparently lots of people have been suggesting "Storm Bigoil", along with BP, Equinor, Exxon & Shell... This is obviously appalling & definitely not to be emulated via this link:https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/forms/name-our-storms-call-for-names

@MarkHoltom I do hope they choose "Storm Carbon Capture is a fraud"

Once they’ve closed it, an FOI will be in order to see all the suggestions as I bet they won’t just publish them.

@MarkHoltom Thank you for highlighting this. I have suggested the names of people who are very actively involved on generating storms:
Ridley
Monckton
Lawson
Farage
Blair -

@MarkHoltom @jankmammal We all did this last year too. Amusing. They always ignore ‘political’ suggestions though.

@MarkHoltom Well, the MetOffice have asked for it : “ Is your grandma a force of nature? Does your best friend cause an impact wherever they go? Now you can give them the recognition they deserve, by naming a storm after them.” “Impact”… yeah, Dave or Amy don’t really hit the mark, do they?

@MarkHoltom it also asked if they could publicise the reason. Of course you can, if you dare...

@MarkHoltom Totally didn’t use Shell, BP, Equinor, Total and Mobil, and totally didn’t give ”human-caused climate change by consumption of fossil fuels” as the reason!

@MarkHoltom
We need to give credit where it's due: the people who have worked so hard over the decades to generate these heatwaves should be recognised. -

@MarkHoltom they're obviously not going to use these suggestions, all this does is annoy the employees working on this project
