Media and science/environment communicator now working at NSW EPA. All views my own (or my wife's), especially the controversial ones.

About time Cummins made them play at the ball @7Cricket Australia needs to make the batsmen play more with a wicket like this. The Indian team have been able to leave too many balls during this test, especially off the strike bowlers. @RickyPonting

This @GuardianAus story by @_LisaMCox shows @NSW_EPA knew for a decade soil containing friable asbestos is used for landscaping near schools, parks and childcare centres and didn't act. This is far worse than Rozelle. @dailytelegraph @smh @2GB873 @abcnews https://t.co/IHUBTHQ95F

@ashleyruba_phd I know all 3 types. I have no time for the 2's. These people enable a level of corruption that in any other industry would see people fired or public investigations. Science is losing credibility, and much of the reason for that stems from what is happening in universities.

@theheraldsun Thanks to @LeahBelle1 for this charming story of a disappearing Christmas tradition and for taking the time to chat to our @VeoliaANZ garbo Dave to get the human side of it all.

For Aussie garbo Dave, getting a six-pack of beer on his morning run was normal. Now, hardly anyone says hello. > https://t.co/WMeWGYan0c

@RARohde I am deeply unconvinced that we have turned the corner. Our policies are mostly targets without consequential penalties if they're missed. Targets are not action. I'll believe we have turned the corner only when the Keeling Curve starts to flatten. Anything else is fantasy.

@afreedma This year, there are more than 97,000 delegates.

[WrittenInStone @stone_written]

@afreedma It's not world leaders and negotiators that people are upset about. It's the thousands of corporates who go to talk business, green groups that don't even make the blue zone talking to themselves, lobbyists looking for the next make and product salespeople.

Thanks @DuncanAAP at @AAPNewswire and @SBS for the great story on saving marine turtles this summer and what to do if you find one. We can all help save these endangered creatures.

@dailytelegraph And thanks @clareesepacker for your lovely story that goes with this video in today's @dailytelegraph that may save the lives of some of these critically endangered turtles over the coming summer. @VeoliaANZ

@perkinsmiki Here's wishing you the absolute best on your new adventures. You were such a wonderful reporter when I was working with the climate researchers from CLEX and ARCCSS.

Wow! I would have completely missed this. The only joy I got out of elections was seeing the rise of independents. Not sure where the media reporting was about this, considering its impact on democracy.

The Australien Government and the Opposition have made an ad about electoral reforms, and it’s surprisingly honest and informative (and they're hoping you don't hear about it) #auspol
