#COP31, the world’s biggest climate summit, will head to Türkiye next year with Australia holding the presidency.

First Nations communities cannot be overlooked. Representation and meaningful participation for First Nations people needs to be at the heart of COP31.
Australia hands COP31 to Türkiye but Bowen to lead negotiations
Adelaide will not host next year's COP summit, but Australia's energy minister, Chris Bowen, will lead the negotiations, and a pre-event will be hosted by a Pacific Island nation.

Community involvement is SO important when it comes to infrastructure in regional Australia.

Great news! A massive plastics ban will be implemented in NSW from next year. The 2.0 Plastics Ban will include bread tags and helium balloon releases to name a few. A terrific move towards combatting plastic pollution!

Some great news 🐢 Global green turtle populations have rebounded thanks to years of conservation efforts! Once classified as “endangered” on the IUCN Red List of Threatened Species, their status was recently downgraded to “least concern”. It's time we started protecting and respecting nature 💚

There are so many things that we buy new, that we could be reusing … like paint! We need to make a cultural shift to stop buying new from being our autopilot. ♻️

What if we treated every clothing purchase as if it were a permanent decision, since there is no “away” when we throw them out?

Letting time pass is the best way to know if you truly want something - and if you really do want to it, see if you can find it second hand first! It’s always better to love pre-loved items. ⭐

Did you know millions of tonnes of wood end up in landfill globally every year, and little is recycled? 🌳

Well, woodworking might seem paradoxical for those who love trees like we do, but reusing timber keeps it out of landfill and reduces the need for deforestation!

What do you do with old wood?

Have you heard of sewing circles? We think they should be much more common! 🧵

Mending garments promotes the circular economy, and how fun does it sound to gather with a bunch of friends to catch up while creating!?
