Inspirational ICE presidential address by Rachel Skinner CBE reminding us of our obligations of #civilengineers to reduce carbon emissions and not harness nature, but support our world in flourishing. #shapingzero #netzero #climatechange #Engineers

Today marks 16 years since since the devastating Boxing Day #Tsunami that swept away entire communities around the Indian Ocean. Over 228,000 people were killed as a result of the 9.1 magnitude quake one of the largest earthquakes ever recorded struck off the coast of Indonesia.

This is a beautiful thread that speaks a lot to me. For the father that moved to give his family a better life, who didn't have a father of his own, who doesn't say much but shows through his actions how much he loves us. Happy Father's day to one gave his daughters the world ♥️

We are with Cambridge University researchers discussing digital twins. Digital twins are a way of getting better insights about the assets you commission, design, construct or manage, enhancing their performance and the outcomes. #DW2021 bit.ly/DigitalTwinJou… Nicola Moretti Sakthy Selvakumaran

A hotel agrees to give a refund for one night - we just have to go to Booking.com to get the refund. Why are all of our correspondence messages deleted? Why is no one arranging this refund? Months and months we are waiting, and all our message history is wiped?
