*Meet* the headline writers who figured out *how* to use the curiosity gap.

Great to see @ABCaustralia being transparent about its 10 year outlook. To this list, I would add two broad global themes thatABC can help the country navigate: Climate and Australia's place in a geo-political/cultural adjustment away from US dominance. https://t.co/NBC336RtTg

The Hon. Chris Bowen MP, Minister for Climate Change and Energy, will give our Summit Day 2 keynote. 17 June.

This will be the incoming Minister’s first major speech and an important signal of the new government’s priorities implementing their expansive climate agenda.

@eytanlenko An interesting question for climate supporters is: ‘what are the different muscles and techniques we need, when we’re riding with the wind?’ It’s been nine years of habit forming.

[Fergus Pitt @fergle]

Strong piece of reporting by the ABC on a serious topic.

To be clear, Woodside has not ticked off all its regulatory hurdles to proceed with Scarborough. It still needs 4 Environmental Approvals from the federal regulator NOPSEMA, & a legal challenge to a state approval pending from @ConservationWA https://t.co/f0FvYHat6v

@brynnobrien @kujo4pm More relevant in less developed economies than most of Australia. +1 on whataboutism

@jpsburke @DavidSligar Not particularly helpful, but there was a report to that effect by some big advisory group in about 2015/16.

However, the housing bank of Mum and Dad, outside inheritance is a confounding factor to 50s/60s argument.

Three of the most important investors in Australia released #ClimateAction case studies today.

Congrats to @unisuperfund @IFM_Investors and @AwareSuper

Their leadership and transparency will help more big investors get to net zero portfolios.

@ABCthedrum @ABCTV Hey @myfuturesuper, is there anything you'd add to a financial literacy conversation on the ABC?

[Fergus Pitt @fergle]

When was the last time you got to hear Toto’s Africa outside Karaoke or a wedding on good speakers?

Holds up.

[Fergus Pitt @fergle]

@R_o_d_C @justdanfornow Definitely deported from Turkey. https://t.co/7WmMnv3O52

@timinclimate Friday afternoon? A bit obvious no?

#hackyPRMove.

[Fergus Pitt @fergle]

Turns out Allbirds might be a canary.

Canaries? AllCanaries?

Anyway… this is interesting.

Great gig for a talented #PR who's keen to align their job with their values.
The @market_forces team are innovative and effective.
They've helped get climate into the conversation for banking and finance.

@CommsDeclare might know someone?
