@theDrDazz and I shared our thoughts on eco-ablism with The Conversation: Banning straws might be good for the planet – but bad for people with disability or swallowing problems. What is 'eco-ableism'? https://t.co/W3p49KMlrc via @ConversationEDU

@drmdunn1 They know the way to an academic’s heart!

@BronwynHemsley @JoWat @Deakin_DI @wespeechies Thanks @BronwynHemsley - unless you’re running into a bug, full info statement is after eligibility confirmation statement and consent q’s. Just tweaked wording.
