Struggling to be polite in response to the question, “but how do you juggle it all?” Because actually with an edit I am desperate to lose myself in, a husband working long days, often including weekends, and three kids under 5 - it is hard. And the answer is always..

We're barrelling head first into a cataclysmic climate disaster of planetary scale, and our governments and economies are COMPLETELY disregarding the emergency exit that would spare us. We're not going to make it, and it's not because "solutions" don't exist. A 🧵, I guess. 1/

It's Te Wiki o Te Reo Māori! 😍👏 Let's treat this language as the taonga (treasure) it is. We can also relish the fact that, like culture, language is living, fluid, adaptable, and sometimes politically potent. This is captured in the new kupu (vocab) around neurodiversity.

I was born in 1970: within my lifetime, two thirds of Earth's wildlife population has been decimated. I hope I live long enough to be able to say I saw it start to regenerate. Read the devastating Living Planet Report 2020 @wwf_uk theguardian.com/environment/…
