Ikea put 1 million #solarpanels on their stores. They built 535 wind turbines. 2 #solar parks. They plan to be climate positive by 2030. We have the solutions, let's implement them. #ActOnClimate #climate #energy #tech #climatestrike #GreenNewDeal Greta Thunberg

The ACT Government's procurement process for renewable energy is an excellent model of transparency, particularly in revealing prices and then subsequent delivery by projects. Other Australian governments should be doing the same. reneweconomy.com.au/act-secures-tw…

A group of Australian Engineers Declare signatories will be appearing in a panel discussion and Q+A on climate action in the workplace and living out your ethics this Saturday as part of #TEDx PermaQueer #COUNTDOWN - full details here tinyurl.com/y3oxzzbu

We are in a Biodiversity Emergency - and the threats to biodiversity compromise the entire ecosystem on which we all depend. #CitizenScience has a huge role to play in protecting our diverse natural world.

We respect the continuous scientific, environmental and engineering traditions of the world's oldest culture. This #NAIDOC2020 we reflect on the need to listen, learn and collaborate on solutions to #ClimateEmergency and #BiodiversityEmergency engineersdeclare.org.au/a-personal-ref…

Our signatory engineers and signatory organisations apply their skills, talents and innovation thinking to addressing the #ClimateEmergency and #BiodiversityEmergency - this is how signatory Ironbark Sustainability is helping save our planet with every project: engineersdeclare.org.au/how-climate-ac…

*In-person event. We are excited to announce our first ever event in 2021 that is part of our collaboration with @NSLFestivalAus where we will look at how planning through real action on the ground can be used as a tool for climate action. eventbrite.com.au/e/beyond-decla…
