    Today we’re celebrating national threatened species day by taking a look at all the wonderful aussie organisations that are quite literally doing the lord’s work. And who knows? It might restore some hope for humanity in our cold, cynical hearts! Yay!!!

    Scuba diving icks

    Quick disclaimer: today’s catch of the day pertains to global warming overshooting 1.5°C above pre-industrial levels. It’s a heavy topic, so if you’re not in the headspace for that discussion, feel free to skip to 24:18 for a more lighthearted discussion.  Can we be mean for a sec?  We looooove being part of the diving community. However, just like with everything in life, it’s not without its flaws. Join us to discuss some of the communities biggest scuba diving icks, courtesy of the Girls that Scuba page.  UN finally admits global warming will shoot past 1.5 ºC climate limit: https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-026-02753-5 Girls that scuba post:  https://www.instagram.com/girlsthatscuba/p/DcYZSaqSkUB/

    Scuba diver: explorer or god complex?

    A scuba diver with a god complex??? We’re all picturing someone as soon as we hear that phrase. Today, we’re jumping into the cost of putting humans underwater as reported by a recent study from the University of Sydney. Say it with us: don’t touch the darn reef!
