Fair warning that this article may be difficult to read. Researchers who work on climate change are struggling with the anxiety, depression & anger that climate change inaction is creating. #ClimateEmergency 🌏🌡🔥 motherjones.com/environment/…

With an astrophysicist as the next Aussie Bachelor, we thought we should share this explanation of the difference between astronomy (science) and astrology (horoscopes). Thanks @CSIROnews for the great animation! 🔭📡🔭📡#ScienceIsForEveryone
Who gets astronomy and astrology confused?
Never fear! We've created this animation to shine a light on #RadioAstronomy 🌌🌟
Astronomy means studying how stars, planets and galaxies work. How? Watch to find out!

Brisbane #Cancer #Researchers: Anyone keen to talk to the public at the Brisbane Science Festival between 16-18th August? It's the first public appearance of the Cancer Puzzle/#EscapeRoom and I'm hoping we can use it to spark conversations about cancer/research. Reply/DM if keen!

Women and solar power for the win! Women in Malawi have been trained to install solar panels to provide their villages with power. Powering rural areas in a sustainable way, what could be better? Thanks @AssaadRazzouk for sharing! #ScienceIsForEveryone

What a great email to receive! If a 5th grader in the USA gets it, then why can't the rest of the population? #BanPlastic #WarOnWaste Thanks for sharing @mattwilkinsbio!

Just got the most amazing email! We need to give kids more agency to influence the world they will inherit. The "wisdom" of adults & the powerful influences of greed, convenience & inertia have led us to a crisis in #plasticpollution! We should all demand producer responsibility!

Sir David Attenborough with a simple message, don't waste! It requires a mind shift from the population. We have to stop being a throw-away society. Only then do we have a chance to stop the destruction that we have caused. 🌏 @davidattenburro #ClimateEmergency #BanPlastic

Dont waste plastics!
Don’t waste food!
Don’t waste power!
Avoiding waste is the one thing we can all do to help save the planet. 👏👏👏

Low methane cows are being bred to reduce our carbon emissions. Changing the microbiome in the cow's rumen can significantly reduce methane production. Thanks for sharing the amoosing image of the 'burp collecting devices' on the cows @NatGeo #ScienceIsForEveryone

Armed with the knowledge that methane-producing microbes in cows are inherited, scientists think they’re one step closer to a more environmentally friendly cow on.natgeo.com/2xuL0RS

Pretty shocking to hear that Adani demanded names of scientists involved in groundwater review. They hired lawyers to investigate scientists & see if they might be 'biased'. Apparently searching social media for anti-coal & anti-mining sentiments. #SoundsLikeIntimidation
