The tweet I share is from 2017, and such sentences, are more important than ever. ...
Many things are not ideal. News, they never were. We need a new positive and perhaps stubborn pragmatism to turn things that don't work into our opportunities to grow, together.

[Bobby Umar | Keynote Speaker 🇨🇦 @raehanbobby]

You can disagree with someone without putting them down.

You can listen to understand instead of listen to refute.

Build bridges of understanding not chasms of divide.

So check you bias, your assumptions & your fear/hate/ignorance at the door.

Lead w/ empathy & love.

💚🤗🙏

Traditional methods for combating #misinformation, like #FactChecking and #debunking, have faced significant limitations.

A new preventive strategy has emerged as a promising alternative: #Prebunking.

The world’s commitment to #BeatPlasticPollution is undeniable.

#INC5 has moved us closer to a #PlasticsTreaty.

As ongoing divergence remains in critical areas, #INC5 has adjourned to allow for more time for these areas to be addressed.

Despite a growth of brackets and new text when #INC4 was meant to streamline, there were some signs of #PlasticTreaty progress, such as agreeing to set a legal drafting group to ensure the text of the new instrument on #plasticpollution is legally sound
