@QandA Don’t mistake Elon Musk’s EV moves for being environmental or as a backing for renewable energy…it’s 100% financially driven. He and Trump aren’t too different.

Poultry farming may have several flaws but now carbon emissions doesn't have to be 1 of them! A new tool in Australia will enable assessment (then reduction!) of on-farm carbon emissions! Love it!

30 women have been killed in Australia this year.

That's more than 2 a week.

It is a national emergency.

Men's violence against women is a men's issue.

We need to step up, take responsibility, drive social change & ensure women are safe in our country.

Online shopping is normal. But fast delivery is irresponsible. The convenience of 'next day' means the carbon footprint of the goods bought is skyrocketing. The solution? Be patient with delivery times!

Ford is planning to use olive trees to make components! They'll use 40% olive tree fiber, 60% recycled plastic. The best bit: the olive trees would otherwise be waste. We love all upcycling but this is the most innovative we've seen!

Here’s some good news!! Renewable energy transition is being fast forwarded…thank goodness!! 👏🏻👏🏻

[swrm @greenswrm]

Exciting news! 60+ countries have committed to signing a pledge to triple renewable energy THIS DECADE! China & India haven't yet agreed but are in negotiations. (Although a major coal burner, China already leads the world in renewable energy capacity).

Is this a new level of cognitive dissonance?

The headline should read: Climate researcher sacked for making decisions based on results of climate research!

This world-first lawsuit is based on the Aus Govt not disclosing the risk to the value of bonds which climate change brings. The case, brought by a then-23yo law student, now has a proposed settlement, to be heard in Federal Court in Oct.

I’m intrigued….personal air purifier and humidifier with moss! They’ve already tested extensively for some pollutants being removed from the air, so I’m super keen to see what they can do re CO2 removal. Tests pending apparently. Definitely like the sound of it. 💚 #moss #nature

[swrm @greenswrm]

This is a super interesting product! Cleans the air around you and provides the added benefit of being able to stare at nature right in your apartment or at your desk! ❤️☘️

Amateur scientist discovered the atmospheric warming properties of CO2! In 1856!! But because she was a woman her work was pretty successfully buried & credit given to a male scientist a few years later. Eunice Newton Foote would celebrate her birthday today, so we celebrate her!

[swrm @greenswrm]

Happy birthday Eunice Foote! DYK this woman was the first person to identify carbon dioxide as a greenhouse gas? In 1856?! We celebrate & appreciate this pioneering scientist & women’s activist! Keen to learn more? Check out some climate science history:

The EU wants to clean up fashion. Long overdue, eagerly awaited rules for supply chains, greenwashing & sustainable design are coming. Great! But it needs to happen far faster than planned. #FastFashion #sustainability #SustainableFashion #JoinTheSwrm https://t.co/CZTY2X0DH1

@Marilynrules1 @STCOLLINS @evanfins @reardon_shaun @MinhKular But that’s not on the table. What is, is the chance to move toward equitable & fair treatment. Based on your first reply to this, that’s what you stand for. I think someone has twisted this all up for you. You don’t like race leading to different outcomes for people? Vote yes.

You know those days when you look in the mirror and go “My makeup is gonna have to work HARD today!” ?
