I love Northern Australia, and it breaks my heart what's happening and is planned for this region. More people need to know why this place is so special and what's at risk, so I wrote about it. My first article for @australiainstitute.org.au's The Point. thepoint.com.au/opinions/251...

Northern Australia is extraordinary, and it’s under severe threat

Right now, this region, is under siege, in large part due to insatiable corporate and government desires to ‘develop’ the North.

Recording Let’s Talk Scicomm with Michael has been one of my most rewarding and fulfilling projects over the last three years. For our 100th episode we had a lot of fun asking each other all the rapid fire questions we’ve asked our guests over the past 13 seasons. We hope you’ll enjoy our chat 💙

If you were an icecream, what flavour would you be? This is just one of the hard-hitting questions @michael-wheeler.bsky.social & @scidocmartin.bsky.social had fun answering in our 100th episode 😂 Huge thanks to all our fabulous listeners for your support 🙏💙 Please listen & share pod.fo/e/292e8b

On the left is Michael, a tall white man with dark brown hair and wearing a dark blue shirt. Next to him is Jen, a white woman who is much shorter than Michael, with light brown hair cut above her shoulders. She is wearing a black short sleeved top with colourful animal prints on it. She has sunglasses perched on the top of her head. Both Michael and Jen are holding icecream cones and smiling.

I’m proud we’ve made it to episode 99 💙 And I’m so grateful to work with this incredible team who candidly shared their best and worst career experiences. 🤩🤩 If you’re interested in what we’ve learned over a combined nearly 100 years of communicating about science, please listen pod.fo/e/28ebff

Wooohooooo 🥳🥳 What better way to celebrate our 99th episode than getting the whole team together to chat about our #scicomm highs and lows: when things went well, when they went badly & most importantly, what we learned along the way! 👉👉 We'd love you to listen and share: pod.fo/e/28ebff

The text on this image says New This Week: Our Scicomm Highs and Lows. In the centre of the image is a photo of 5 people with a beach and evening sky behind them. There are 4 people at the front of the image - from left to right: a tall grey-haired man (Graham) wearing a speckled brick-red jumper; and then three shorter women, all with brown hair. The woman on the left (Jen) is wearing a black shirt with green leaves and orange flowers and an orange jacket. Next to her (Linden) is wearing a plain black jumper. And next to Linden is Catriona, wearing a blue denim jacket and dark-rimmed glasses. Behind the four of them is another tall man (Michael) who has dark brown hair and is wearing a plain dark clue shirt. The rest of the image is light blue, pink, dark blue and yellow geometric shapes.
