I'm a science communicator that asked climate researchers a question they don't normally hear: How does climate change make you feel? https://teapawt.net/t.co/LqqeoqZe7y

To celebrate national science week, we are shining a light on the brilliant climate scientists we collaborate with on our Changing Climates program, enlightening us about the importance of climate science communication! 🧑🔬 🌳 🌦️ @SafariPenguin @sarahinscience #NationalScienceWeek
A look at coping with climate emotions
Scientists need safe spaces to understand and process "climate emotions".
Group therapy helps people find the strength and resilience to continue their important work, without harming their health.

Something new is happening
Stay tuned for more.
A collaboration with @nealhaddaway
A potential new project:
(1/2)To the #climate folks - you might know my work from @ITHYF_Letters - we share scientists feelings about climate change. Well, we have something new in the works. A children's book focussed on sustainability. We are seeking small scale funding, can anyone recommend funders?

Vale Professor Will Steffen - a brilliant researcher and passionate communicator.
Will contributed to ITHYF in 2014 and again in 2020.

Any of our Australian based followers want to see an amazing, emotive performance and exhibition? Why not head along to the Royal Botanic Gardens in Melbourne from next week: rbg.vic.gov.au/melbourne-gar…

Yes, but I still think that this is meaningful.
Do you know @ITHYF_Letters project?
Scientists express their feelings there - not peer reviewed science and it is often quite direct and strong language, more alarming than official tone of reports.
For instance @sarahinscience

I wrote a piece on, you guessed it, climate change and feelings for the latest issue of @UNESCO_MGIEP "blue dot". Check it out here: mgiep.unesco.org/the-blue-do…

It was a pleasure to work with @nealhaddaway and @NicBadullovich on this one. 7 years after the start of @ITHYF_Letters - I think this is a nice end to the chapter.
It’s ok to feel the way you do about the climate - why we need safe spaces for researchers to share #climateemotions

Ok. I read all 129 pages of the pamphlet. Its not worth the paper I didn’t print it on.
I understand technology damn well. This isn’t a “technology driven approach”. It’s inaction, misdirection & avoiding choices.
I’m going to bed. This is just ridiculously embarrassing.
It's been six long years since ITHYF had anything on during National Science Week - but @mcmichaelanna and @DevenishLouise have something in store for the Botanic Gardens in Victoria. Get along: scienceweek.net.au/event/cli…
1/3 So, a few years ago I had the idea of turning ITHYF into a coffee table book.
Sort of @PaulHawken Drawdown meets @LettersOfNote by @ShaunUsher - launch a kick-started to create a carbon neutral paperback that could have a buy one pay one forward scheme...

2/2 .... where for every book you purchased you could send another anywhere in the world. It could be used as an educational aid, a protest tool.... imagine a president or prime minister getting a thousand on their doorstep.

I think @ITHYF_Letters has a lot of content from scientists showing many are seriously concerned!
Also - please check @panikowac ("It's time to panic") - movie about prof Szymon Malinowski from Poland.
Check us out on Insta too - we will be sharing the artier side of this art-science 'thing' that we do. instagram.com/ithyf_letters/
