Let’s work with shark scientists to develop education around shark safety to be considered in schools nationwide. Echoing the call from @nsw_sharksmart to be #sharksmart. And no, I personally do not support a shark cull. Let’s divert those resources to scientific research. #shark

Corals making more corals. Today I saw fertilised coral eggs and tonight there will be more spawning (coral reproduction). Amazing work by the Australian Institute of Marine Science. Here on a very exciting and innovative journey…. #coralreef #coral #scicomm #innovation #tech

Between 18–20 May 1944, #Stalin deported nearly 200,000 Crimean #Tatars from #Crimea, forcing entire families into freight wagons and sending them thousands of kilometers away, mainly to Uzbekistan. Today, #Russia again seeks to erase Crimea’s identity through occupation, repression, and propaganda.

When an 89-year-old relative got a pacemaker, the surgeon suggested he should go outside & do moderate work such as mowing lawns. He's following surgeon's advice. I mowed lawns part-time as a teen. I prefer to cycle on protected networks for exercise & fun, let a shared autonomous mower do lawns.
