Australiaโs international reputation and diplomatic influence will be damaged if crucial climate change research in Antarctica is cancelled, international lawyers and environmentalists have warned.

After all the revelations in the Nash report and the Russell review, now this?? Appalling rhetoric from the AAD & government. Zero action taken to reduce work place harm, that they *admit* they have caused. Where is leadership? @tanya_plibersek
Exclusive: Dozens of climate projects in Antarctica are set to be cut due to a budget crunch. They include studies of sea ice - which is at a record low - and melting ice shelves. No scientists will observe penguin populations that are in rapid decline. https://t.co/sYTK9x4kzs
The International Conservation Translocation Conference is hosting workshops with ecological modelling gurus Jo Potts @AnalyticalEdge and Darryl Mackenzie with a 2-day course aimed at translocation practitioners, as well as a 5-day introductory course https://t.co/zJ1ZEi0ev0

โThe Russell report finally shines a light on the toxic culture of the Australian Antarctic Division but does it go far enough. Is there any accountability? Is there any punishment for the bullies?โ

@AnalyticalEdge Going to work shouldn't be such an ordeal. Horrifying & heart-breaking to hear how widespread and sustained the harm has been. Well past time for deep change & accountability.
Solidarity with all the staff and their families & loved ones
