Rural areas directly impacted by global warming

While we can all see the impacts of a warmer, drier climate — searing temperatures in metro areas, numerous bushfires (often in areas not previously threatened), and countless people loosing homes and livelihoods… rural areas directly impacted by severe weather are already showing a noticeable impact in available food resources, commodities pricing, and sustenance for us all.

As part of the European Union’s Destination Earth project to forecast the planet’s future, the European Centre for Medium-Range Weather Forecasts (ECMWF) has developed a high-resolution climate model. Refer to the Science.org article — link

Rally for Native Forests

Rally for Native Forests

Australia’s native forests, the climate, and forest-dependent wildlife are in crisis. 

With action, there is still time for change.

The Australian government can end this ecocide. Forest protection is climate action and will bring wildlife back from the brink of extinction. 

Learn about La Niña and El Niño

The Australian Bureau of Meteorology published an informative video to improve your understanding of the El Niño and La Niña and their impacts on our climate and weather. This “Understanding ENSO” video explains what El Niño–Southern Oscillation (ENSO) is, how the cycle works including the science behind the phases, and the potential impacts on Australia’s climate and weather.
