On this #globaldayofclimateaction, I’m sharing Fairweather Friend: my new five-part podcast series exploring truths behind Australia's climate change denial:

Good @cityofexiles @dwnews story on the role media weather forecasters can play in fostering understanding of the #climatechange context around some weather events. History tidbit: "25 years ago, then-US President @BillClinton and VP @AlGore hosted 100-odd TV weathercasters in the White House to encourage them to report the link between extreme weather and climate change." Also shows the value of #ClimateMatters project of @climateCentral​ and partners, including @MaibachEd @ClimateComms. And a good section on the wide range of views of global warming in the meteorology world.

This is not a Monday morning vaccination queue, but it is a sad sign of the times on LaTrobe St.

@_fionalaughton Hope you’re on the mend! x

I want to commission an illustrated portrait of a friend and her mum, which I'll send to her in Melbourne (ideally later next month). All your artists recs are very much welcomed ☺️

[Melisa Gray-Ward @melisagrayward]

@msmisrule I’m so sorry 💙

[Stuart Braun @cityofexiles]

I spoke to @investigate_eu and climate activists about how Big Energy are using multi-billion euro lawsuits to hold a gun to the head of EU governments trying to phase out fossil fuels https://t.co/BnxMcsutuA #ClimateCrisis

@_fionalaughton You and me both, babes!

One year into working from home and the wheels on my desk chair now fall off at regular intervals throughout the day.

[Melisa Gray-Ward @melisagrayward]

@ro_sa_mu_nd Amazing! 😍

[Melisa Gray-Ward @melisagrayward]

@KetanJ0 Wow, that is fascinating! Also can't believe I remember nearly every word of that ad, having forgotten it existed until now.

[Melisa Gray-Ward @melisagrayward]

@maddieduke YES! I love this. I'll take a closer look, saw they were offering a 100% free diploma in sustainable living recently (amazing) but I think it might cost 50% of the standard fee now. Either way, I'm so into taking this unit. Thank yoooou and happy Sunday! 💚

[Melisa Gray-Ward @melisagrayward]

Plant people, I want to go beyond the bare minimum of (barely) keeping my plants alive and instead learn how to propagate, deal with aerial roots and keep my babies happy. Any go-to book/s where I can find all this out?

[Melisa Gray-Ward @melisagrayward]

@rachaelamullins @_fionalaughton That's great though, I've temporarily deactivated FB at present but will no doubt make a return at some point and will definitely check this group out. Thanks again for your help and happy Sunday 💚

[Melisa Gray-Ward @melisagrayward]

@rachaelamullins @_fionalaughton Thanks so much, Rachel! LOL at green thumb partner because that's basically what keeps our plants alive RN, especially ask every time I'm asked if I "watered the plants recently" my answer is vague but affirming, and "recently" could be as recent as a month ago.

[Melisa Gray-Ward @melisagrayward]

@_fionalaughton @rachaelamullins Thanks, Fi! x

[Melisa Gray-Ward @melisagrayward]

@meowdee Hahaha... you'll smash it though!

[Melisa Gray-Ward @melisagrayward]

Yesterday my dentist asked if I’ve been clenching my jaw a lot. Ummm.

[Melisa Gray-Ward @melisagrayward]

@ro_sa_mu_nd Oof yes! I know this is an absolute minor grievance in the big scheme of things, but I was so bummed to find out @PapierUK are also no longer currently shipping to DE.
