The 2026 #IWD motto was "give to gain". Minnie Chan is a Hong Kong-based reporter for SCMP who attended a conference in Beijing in November, 2023 and has not been seen or heard from since. Perhaps if #journalists give attention to Minnie Chan her family might gain her return. Hope persists.

What’s the latest with V2G agreements? It will be a game changer if you also have a battery. Keen to buy an EV but not until V2G (and more consistent charging plugs) is available.

4 artists & 3 scientists created a series of posters to communicate some of the science issues most important to us. These posters are made to be shared! We're selling them in 4-packs, so YOU can share them outside of the science circles where we hang out online. get 'em squidfacts.bigcartel.com

4 12x18 inch posters on a brick and concrete wall. The top left is pink and says funding science saves lives, written in microbes, next to a microscope. The one on the right says Biology is bigger than binaries, with a fish, a lily, and a bee. The bottom left says Protecting wildlife starts wtih you, with a bunch of adiorable woodland creatues in yellow, white and black, including an owl, fungi, a... um. weasel? salamanders, butterflies, slugs, and a rotting log. The bottom right says Will our oceans thrive or nosedive the choice is yours, with the ocean represented in a circle, half of which is dead and half of which is alive, including kelp and a mackerel

The headline is wrong. They haven’t been ordered to do anything. Dutton has released a policy.

Managed to avoid buying anything labelled Made in the USA today. It was pretty easy. Bugger all in our supermarkets is American. Maybe those awful round chocolate biscuits with white gunk in the middle? #auspol

“A new study of early separated lane projects in the U.S. across six cities finds a rise of ridership between 21% and 171% after the lanes were installed.” The pretty strong and convincing case for protected bike-lane networks in cities. In @fastcompany.com

Giving cyclists their own space results in some pretty big benefits beyond just a lack of dead cyclists.

Why scripture? Why not "sacred texts" from any of the 2000 other religions and sects and cults out there? Do you know what is in the Bible? Slavery is fine. Women should stay quiet. What about the hundreds of contradictions and incorrect translations? Teach it as social science along with all faiths

Also just going to leave this here. Remember Mr Bolt used his strange obsession with my journalism to retraumatise a vulnerable victim (Paris Street of St Kevin’s) of a convicted sexual offender? Bolt was later forced to apologise when Paris stood up for himself. www.theguardian.com/media/2020/f...

My experience at Canada/US border posts was that US border guards treated everyone entering the USA as a possible criminal. So if Canada is a source of illegal immigration as Trump suggests, isn't that a problem of the USA enforcing its own rules?
