I care about the #ClimateEmergency because not only will it cause irreparable harm to our planet, it will disproportionately affect the poor and more marginalised in our society - those of us with more privilege have a duty to fight for #climateaction. Why do you march? #ACEM19

It will be the hottest November day ever today in Hobart. Ocean temperatures going up by 4 degrees on the east coast of Tasmania, imaging if our body temperatures went up by 4 degrees... #ACEM19 ACEM

#ClimateChange increases the conditions in which bushfires occur. Australia is getting hotter and drier. Smoke is a huge health hazard. We should expect more and more of these days.

Thank you Helen Berry for providing a path for #climateaction involving optimism and hope. #ACEM19
