My new essay "Climate Refuge" is out in an @asterixjournal special issue "Mothers Unearthed" edited by @emilyraboteau and @tashiraz. It is a personal essay about motherhood in a time of climate crisis, as we lived through the bushfires & floods in Sydney. asterixjournal.com/climate-r…

Climate Refuge - Aster(ix) Journal

Migrants and the working class have been pushed to the periphery of the city where they are at greater risk of extreme heat, bushfires, and floods.
