I've found a lot of the 'cli-fi' films and books to be a bit depressing. What if we work things out? Where's the hope? So I wrote an action-adventure story that delved more deeply, beyond the challenge of climate change, into the human psyche https://t.co/BSk1rcTLx2

After 15 years, over and out for me from ex-Twitter. If only the #buytwitter campaign a few years ago had been successful, and the owners of the platform could have been collectively those who use it.

@ConversationEDU @QUT @TheRoomXchange fyi - would also like to see some discussion about the number of vacant houses identified across Australia in @Prosper_Aust's 'Speculative Vacancies' reports https://t.co/FXYiK0aE7p

[Prosper Australia @Prosper_Aust]

"Almost 100,000 homes in Melbourne – enough to cover the social housing waiting list twice over – are unoccupied, prompting calls for a major tax overhaul to discourage the waste."

The role and value of climate fiction - to explore, perturb, imagine. To ask even deeper questions: what if someone else was doing this to us; if the climate crisis is a 'world of effects'? What if we could feel the future before it arrives? https://t.co/P3WR1SeWgH

@TransformFin Here's a link to the report https://t.co/qbLiCNHMMl

Creating businesses that are aligned with the Doughnut starts here - and it's high time to create the finance that serves them. Check out this great new report from @TransformFin

Cli-fi does *not* have to be dystopian - and positive stories can have therapeutic benefits for society, as well as those writing them. #iwroteone

'Cli-fi' might not save the world, but writing it could help with your eco-anxiety.

How can we effectively communicate our initiatives to different audiences? In 2011, I adapted a documentary marketing plan and used it for mapping post-growth audience segmentation. Includes suggested workshop format & templates. How could you use it?

Science communication has to start with values, and most of the time it does.

As @scitjc, @heatherbray6 (@uwanews) + @matt_nurse (@ANUmedia) write, fact-bombing by experts doesn’t change hearts and minds – but good science communication can. https://t.co/3Rn4MgAga3

@Houston_Howard Thanks so much for sharing and the supportive words 🙏 It was your SuperStory approach that inspired me to go deep on one story, and create multiple assets around it.

[Sharon Ede @sharonede]

Multisolving: one action, many benefits! Yes! Have done this intuitively since 1993 after joining the ecocity movement in which we advocated and demonstrated how to do this by changing how we design and make cities.

[Dr. Elizabeth Sawin @bethsawin]

If you do a lot of silo crossing in your work, and do it intuitively but sometimes struggle to convey to partners & funders why patience and trust building are so critical I hope our new article in SSIR might give you theory & practical examples to help make the case.

@Houston_Howard I paid attention to what you said. book. teaching resources. audio format(s). screenplay (has been evaluated via The Black List). soon, a game based on the story https://t.co/P3WR1SeWgH

[Sharon Ede @sharonede]

Thanks @Houston_Howard your insights are so valuable here; becoming a multifaceted creative is a must-have in this era. I am creating an audiobook and teacher resources around my self published novel - you have inspired me to investigate a podcast. https://t.co/J8QIziLzGF

@ConversationEDU @MonashUni 'Hypoxia' or lack of oxygen can be caused by disruption to the autonomic nervous system due to lack of energy. Vitamin B1, thiamine, plays a critical role in energy and the ANS. Has anyone ever looked into whether there was a genetic predisposition? https://t.co/BalIc6YA8X
