Climate News: 'Terrified of climate change': polymath, Arnold Dix

Update: 2024-08-12

Description

Melbourne's Arnold Dix (pictured) is something of a polymath, who is terrified of climate change, but who sees some value in Australia adopting nuclear power and he discusses that in a Melbourne Age story - "The ‘scared’ green activist who is now embracing a nuclear future";

"Magic thinking vs the hard truth of climate change";

"Last summer was so hot on the Great Barrier Reef, even the scientist didn’t believe it";

"Urban growth is leading to more intense droughts for most of the world’s cities – and Sydney is a case study for areas at risk";

"The Missing Peace Webinar #1: The Greens’ commitment to peace with Bob Brown and Jo Vallentine";

"July was California’s hottest month ever, as climate warms to dangerous new extremes";

"California is harnessing solar power thanks to a big battery boom, providing a glimpse into Australia's energy future";

"Dug up in Australia, burned around the world – exporting fossil fuels undermines climate targets";

"‘Everything, everywhere, all at once’: Australia’s survival in a warmer world will be a mammoth multi-tasking effort";

"Antarctic heat, wild Australian winter: what’s happening to the weather and what it means for the rest of the year".
