The sad news has come through that Professor Will Steffen passed away last night. For decades he has been one of the world's pre-eminent researchers of Climate Change, and a powerful advocate for the radical action needed. Rest In Peace and Power 💚✊🏻

Australian Twitter staff locked out of their systems overnight. Zero doubt that this is a pretty severe breach of Australian labor laws - you can't retrench someone without a clear and consistent process before doing so. Add this to the lawsuit pile.
