Breaking my silence on Twitter to pay tribute to Will Steffen. What a gentle, humble and inspiring man and scientist he was.

In January 2020 he participated virtually in a seminar I organised in France while his city Canberra was on alert because bushfires had reached the edge of the city and there was a chance that they would have to evacuate.

This week, Chile announced a proposed new constitution written by a democratically elected convention, and it is likely the most legitimate constitution in the world, as it is written boldly in the context of the climate crisis. A 🧵on its inspiring climate provisions.

In 2014, this French weather presenter announced the forecast for August 18, 2050 as part of a campaign to alert to the reality of climate change. Now her forecast that day is the actual forecast for the coming 4 or 5 days, in mid-June 2022.
