I take pride in students leaving my classroom with more questions than they entered it with; not because they are confused, but because they want to know more!

This bloke spent £300 on vets fees and X-rays and it turned out nothing was wrong with the dog, was just copying him out of sympathy 😂😂😂

@FiMorrison2 Fantastic 💡 Idea!

[Dr. Sweta Chakraborty @swetac]

We have the human ingenuity to overcome the challenges we face. It is time to get serious and realize there is no time to waste. A planet that is cleaner, more efficient, and more equitable is possible, but we need to start making better decisions now. 6/6

[Dr. Sweta Chakraborty @swetac]

We must begin planning for how to respond to the parallel threats of climate change and infectious diseases. As the Biden Administration takes office, I urge new and unprecedented coordination between climate scientists and global health professionals. 5/6

[Dr. Sweta Chakraborty @swetac]

COVID-19 is a mild disease by virology standards. Far more lethal viruses can emerge, and we’ve seen from COVID-19 how disruptive even just a mild virus can be. Increased infectious diseases alongside more frequent/ intense hurricanes, droughts, wildfires can be overwhelming. 4/6

[Dr. Sweta Chakraborty @swetac]

We don't even fully understand the threats awaiting us in permafrost soils that have been frozen for thousands of years and are now thawing; untold viruses and bacteria locked in the ice are re-emerging. We must treat pandemics and climate change as interconnected threats. 3/6

[Dr. Sweta Chakraborty @swetac]

As the planet heats up and human population grows, we can anticipate further habitat encroachment and destruction. This will lead to more interaction with exotic wild animals like bats, porcupines, snakes... all of this increases the risk of disease to emerge. 2/6

[Dr. Sweta Chakraborty @swetac]

I'm a risk and behavioral scientist. I assess threats related to pandemics, food scarcity, over-population, and climate change.

Here's what we're not talking about enough: the frequency of global pandemics will only accelerate as climate change gets worse. /thread

@KristyMayr7 We are about to cross the border, within the next half hour and have been in rural NSW - so no 14 day quarentine needed - just a test till neg?

[STEAMEducator @EducatorSteam]

[STEAMEducator @EducatorSteam]

@catherinedowlan @KristyMayr7 @BelindaJones68 @7NewsMelbourne It absolutely does!!! We are in Wentworth on the border and defo in a green zone!!

[STEAMEducator @EducatorSteam]

@DoctorDSG @abcnews @JacintaAllanMP @MartinFoleyMP @VicGovDHHS If we return before 11:59pm tonight (test until neg result) do we have to quarantine for the 14 days still?

[STEAMEducator @EducatorSteam]

@catherinedowlan @KristyMayr7 @BelindaJones68 @7NewsMelbourne Trying also to clarify if I need to isolate.

The ultimate message in #SoulMovie is so necessary. One that’s so easy to lose sight of too. It’s great to have a passion, and a blessing to be able to find some sort of success in it. But don’t ever get so caught up that you convince yourself it’s all you are.

[Dan Andrews @DanielAndrewsMP]

Just to reiterate:

Inside Bunnings = mask
Bunnings carpark if you can keep 1.5m apart = no mask
In the Bunnings sausage sizzle line = mask
Onions = on top of the sausage

I can't be clearer than that.
