Climate News: A letter to a gaoled climate activist; It's never been so hot - European winter feels like summer; We're living in a 'Fossocracy'

from Climate Conversations · host Robert McLean

Violet Coco (pictured) was sent to gaol for her Sydney Harbour Bridge protest and the letter I sent to her was "return to sender' - this is what I said and this is what Violet said when interviewed recently for Climate Conversations. "'Very unpredictable, severe event' as WA's Kimberley region smashed by once-in-a-century floods"; "NSW forests could become net carbon emitters in coming decades, report finds"; "'Feels like summer': Warm winter breaks temperature records in Europe"; "Australia’s floods on the way out, but bushfires could be next"; "Fossocracy Australia: government of the people, by the fossil fuel companies for the fossil fuel companies"; "Is a Dam in Rural Portugal a Key to Our Alternative Energy Future?"; "Climate change: Why is Europe experiencing a January heat wave?"
