107 years ago Shackleton set sail for Antarctica. The 5th December saw his last contact with the outside world for 18 months, and with land for 497 days.
2 weeks ago, Thin Ice VR set sail on its maiden voyage celebrating the world premiere presented by @AdlFilmFest and @SAMuseum

It really is now or never as this IPCC report starkly shows.We r already on course to exceed 1.5°C in 20 years; the devastating impact of a warming world on the climate is everywhere.There really is so little time! @GreenpeaceUK @griffiths_huw @TimJarvisAM

@TimJarvisAM wore modern @KathmanduGear while filming for Thin Ice VR in the Antarctic, but Shackleton’s men had to rely on wool to maintain their warmth- making this humble balaclava a life saver in the harsh conditions over 100 years ago.
Good food is important to everyone, but it’s better to buy locally produced food & drinks that haven’t travelled hundreds or sometimes thousands of kms to reach your plate. Visit https://t.co/yaGdNfY1Q9 for more tips & to find out more about @ThinIceVR
Have you seen that @IlluminateAdl has special pricing for school bookings? Don’t miss the opportunity to secure group bookings for the experience that students will be talking about long after the film has ended.

Saving global biodiversity whilst combatting climate change represents the ultimate win-win. When one adds the massive economic benefit of doing so there is simply no justification not to act. https://t.co/F2fTla9SRd
Today is #WorldEnvironmentDay. This year the focus is restoration of ecosystems. Time to rethink our relationship with the living world, with natural ecosystems and their biodiversity and work towards restoration.

5 years ago I was on the summit Mt Stanley in the Rwenzori Mountains, (home to Africa’s fast disappearing largest icecap) beaming into the Paris climate talks urging the need for a new ambitious climate agreement.
TBS are helping us build a more sustainable future by generously donating to Forktree’s onsite sustainability centre. For more info on TBS visit: https://t.co/78CSv9hnFe

Every year, the 7th September is a funny old day.
It’s #ThreatenedSpeciesDay and also #ThylacineDay, when, 84 years ago today, the last of these beautiful animals died, neglected, cold and alone.
Now, with 1M species threatened with extinction, we still have so much to do.
