Many thanks to the incredible group of women who’ve closely supported my journey so far, especially Harini Nagendra, Vanesa Castan Broto and Beth Perry and a global constellation of caring colleagues I have the privilege of working with, being mentored by & befriending over the last few years! 3/3

As long as I am you shall be… every kiss, every moment, every walkie, every bark, song, your fur, pitter patter of your nails, helping me through the worst, love, and trust even in the very end - my body and soul are temples to our love. My Angel gone too soon 13.11.2023.

A bent solar panel hangs over a river bank in the aftermath of flooding

Seen in Vermont. A reminder that we need to multisolve - including thinking about climate change adaptation while we work hard at climate change mitigation.
