Breaking my twitter silence. My letter in yesterday’s (30/5/2025) The Age, re: the immoral NW Shelf gas extraction approval. The private profit and tax generated by the expansion of NW shelf gas project will be swamped by the future costs. Our children will live with its impacts.

Wow… I post for the first time in ages on twitter about climate and the Trolls/bots come out en masse to attack. So glad I left. What a cesspool. Feel free to follow me on BlueSky. Ta ta.

Our article in Monash Lens with Ailie Gallant, Tas van Ommen, Brenda Lin, Sonia Bluhm and Angela Koning on the importance to Australia of a national climate risk assessment done well. And hence why we must legislate to ensure timely updates. lens.monash.edu/2025/06/06/138…

Our article out today that I wrote  (with some colleagues from Monash and BoM) on the current ‘green’ drought across southern Australia, and how it relates to climate change. Feedback welcome!

Our article in today’s The Conversation - Australia + New Zealand - US cuts will have a global (negative) ripple effect on weather and climate monitoring and forecasting, right when weather extremes mean we have never needed accurate early warnings more.
