Walking across campus in summer @scienceanu.bsky.social #canberra

Local #wildlife. #canberra

Watching Erin speak about this work on information needs and best practice communication strategies for young peple following the bushfires at @healenviron.bsky.social Amazing work led by her.

2 year journey with government. We reviewed global studies on #health and #wellbeing #cobenefits of urban #climate policies. Benefits included reduced illness, mortality, and social gains. Most research was based on hypothetical scenarios (1/3) iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1...

Focusing on the way forward at my favourite building in #Canberra the Shine Dome @science.org.au, having the courageous conversations on #climate, #environment and #health to protect this beautiful planet that heals us.

Jane Goodall is the reason I became a #wildlife ecologist and then went on to study our interactions with nature. She was inspirational and a trail blazing #womaninscience. In a world full of optics, her quiet leadership, authenticity, and compassion continue to be aspirational. #jane #goodall

📸 Spotted! 🐘 A baby elephant in the Elephant Species and Habitat Conservation Reserve in Da Nang, Vietnam. The second elephant born to the herd since 2020.🧪 Habitat conservation = conservation of countless species 🌍

Doing #science on a beautiful campus, with a wonderful team. I crossed the divide (Sullivan's Creek) to teach postgraduate #environmental science students about #climate change #adaptation for #health. The beautiful Forestry building @anufennerschool.bsky.social (1/3)

Our Honours student looked at #spatial inequities in #environmental exposures across a #socio-economic gradient in 3 #Australian cities. Urban planning can promote #health and well-being. A collaborative effort with the University of Sydney www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti...

Celebrating these amazing #science communicators. From fungi to gonorrhoea and building energy storage systems, their ability to communicate complex concepts was remarkable.

Our 2024 Assessment Update as part of the Environmental Effects Assessment Panel of the United Nations Environment Programme. We briefly discuss the large uncertainties of #climate interventions like Stratospheric Aerosol Injection. link.springer.com/article/10.1...

Opportunity for #youth led organisations driving global #climate solutions leverforchange.org/open-calls/e...

One message from two weeks of grant review and award selection panels culminating with the ACT roundtable on #gender, #climate, and #environmental justice (1/3)

Cold Friday afternoons working from home with our #Science buddies, old cozy jumpers, and socks. Zoe, Skye and the blissfully asleep Soot. Erin's Langley- a sleepy queen, moulting around the eyes, and my nowhere near asleep, extremely chatty, officemate

Celebrating some of the best and brightest in #Science. Their collaboration, kindness and support make it an awesome team, doing brilliant work. Structural support will play an important role in building their careers (1/4)

Saving habitats protects entire ecosystems. Fieldwork observing monkeys led to an encounter with the now elusive tusker at the foothills of the Himalayas. I am looking forward to inspired #intergenerational thinking on how to protect the #environment and #health at the Schools Climate Conference

Our reflections on #IWD2025. (1/5) #AccelerateAction

It is possible to create just and sustainable futures for people and nature. 🧪🌍 This #WorldWildLifeDay, CITES is highlighting the value of #InvestingInPeopleAndPlanet. Find out more about this day here: wildlifeday.org/en

Fieldwork fun. 7 months on a coral lagoon diving everyday to follow Green turtles for Science. 8 Hours a day on the reef, and fresh Tuna and coconut water for lunch and dinner... every single day. Simple joys.

We sent Erin off to have some academic fun and talk about variable selection when information is conflicting. The Confidence profile method is a useful starting point to think through decision making with good Bayesian compatibility for #climate and #health work. She even managed some Pokemon Go!

Would you pay to protect koala habitats or blue-green spaces like your local lake? Led by @zlevo.bsky.social, we examined whether thinking about high-impact #health or #climate events would make someone more willing to financially support these areas. Read here: iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1...

#environmental, #climate and #health crises need solutions led by local communities. Supporting small scale gold mining communities' need for clean water and health service access during a pandemic required global funding, and #collaboration across borders and disciplines.

Hear about the very latest research and data detailing how our climate is changing and how we are responding to these changes in Australia and around the world, and a celebration of a local artist. Virtual attendance is possible. I'm looking forward to attending this iceds.anu.edu.au/news-events/...

Biodiversity loss, climate change and pollution do not happen in isolation, but proposed solutions too often fail to account for this. Two major reports point the way forward.

#Science Leadership is about creating space for diverse, credible voices. One of my proudest achievements is to have founded, with philanthropic support, the McMichael Award for #earlycareer scientists working for #planet and #people. Meet Yen. @scienceanu.bsky.social youtu.be/gOm6iFAZnow?...

The world’s 280 million electric bikes and mopeds are cutting demand for oil 4x more than electric cars due to their staggering uptake in China and elsewhere.

With the world currently hosting the largest generation of #youth in history, it was a great privilege to present the 2024 Schools #Climate Choices Awards in Canberra. I am confident that our shared future is in very safe hands with these young people

📢New research alert We know many are angry about climate change. But precisely WHAT they’re angry about matters, for action and wellbeing. Original open-access article here: www.sciencedirect.com/science/arti... @mentaloose.bsky.social #climatesky

Transformational Science is a team sport. I feel so lucky and grateful to work with people in #climatehealth who inspire and challenge me to do better, to be better, every day. Written with the brilliant Zoe Leviston and Arnagretta Hunter sustainabilitycommunity.springernature.com/posts/new-ac...

Not a bad place for an all day meeting on modelling biosecurity risks in #Canberra. Wonderful collaborators in the Department of Agriculture and brilliant #science

Co-benefits are an effective way of articulating how health can be embedded in climate and energy efficiency policies. Led by #PhD Zoe in collaboration with policymakers, our work shows that incentivising more ambitious climate policy could improve health and wellbeing. doi.org/10.1088/1748...

A person on a bicycle is by far the most energy-efficient among animals and machines per distance traveled relative to body weight. The bicycle is magic. www.jstor.org/stable/24923...

5 years ago in #Antarctica with #TeamHB4. It's silent strength and unapologetic presence is a great reminder today. HOPE (Health of People and Environment) is a great way forward.

Watched "Making Pandemics" and listened and learned about how protecting biodiversity is essential for good health. Thank you for the opportunity to talk about the hope that #Science and #young people bring. Moderated by the brilliant @onawhim.bsky.social Selina.

Led by @zlevo.bsky.social, supported by the McMichael Award, her work highlights the need for #climatechange preparation to include more mental #Health resources in areas where compounding disasters may occur. reporter.anu.edu.au/all-stories/...

Led by #Phd student Zoe in collaboration with policy makers. The interaction between co-benefits and vulnerable groups will enable equitable implementation of climate policies for health and well-being iopscience.iop.org/article/10.1...

Led by #PhD student Rose, this review highlights where the known burden of #climate #water and #health burden lies, but also countries where there is no published information, limiting a comprehensive assessment of disease burden and potential solutions journals.plos.org/climate/arti...

Led by #phd scholar and clinician Simon, his work focuses on the many impacts of heat on health in the Northern Territory. It is a privilege to supervise this work. pmc.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/articles/PMC...
