The Seven Stages of climate denial:
1. It's not real
2. It's not us
3. It's not that bad
4. We have time
5. It's too expensive to fix
6. Here's a fake solution
7. It's too late: you should have warned us earlier
Trolls use all of these stages to deny reality of #climatechange
Fascinating story of uncredited innovation and great paper uncovering its history

Bright Sparks: Amazing Discoveries, Inventions & Designs by Women by @owenodoherty. Packed with fascinating facts by many forgotten women! 50 inventions explained & illustrated by Owen! Age 7+. Two of the inventors were age 12/13! Some of those features are Irish! Excellent book!

Some more photos of the Irish inventors in this beautiful @OBrienPress book. Very very well done to @owenodoherty, who not only wrote his book, but illustrated it too, for his daughter Anna! "From the Earth's inner core to aquariums, from pulsars to pedal bins"! 5/5💫 #herstory
