It was inspiring to engage with such passionate individuals, all committed to driving innovative solutions for our planet’s future.

What an honour it was to represent Australian Wildlife Conservancy at London Climate Action Week, speaking on the nature restoration panel at Extreme Hangout! During our discussion, common themes emerged across the various conservation sites of my fellow panellists. Each species, ecosystem, country, and continent faces a unique set of threats, which on-ground experts and community groups are working tirelessly to manage. Most of the work undertaken to protect and restore nature happens behind the scenes. It is not glamorous, and it is certainly not easy! Biodiversity loss is a tragedy no matter where you are in the world, and it requires incredible persistence to even make a dent in reversing the alarming records of loss. The good news is, we are making a difference to buck these trends of decline. There is still hope, and I was honoured to share the stage with a just a handful of people from around the world who are working towards a brighter future for nature. Thank you to our incredible moderator, Nuriya Shoro, for facilitating such an insightful discussion, and to my fellow panellists Mandy Lieu (Ewhurst Park), Merlin Hanbury-Tenison (Thousand Year Trust), and Ben Goldsmith (Conservation Collective) for speaking with me on such an important issue. #LondonClimateActionWeek #NatureRestoration #ExtremeHangout #BiodiversityLoss #AustralianWildlifeConservancy

I had the amazing opportunity to attend London Climate Action Week last week as part of my second placement on the National Grid grad scheme⚡️. It was energising to represent National Grid and engage with people interested in our approach to sustainability, nature, and vital role in the energy transition🔋🍃. Extreme Hangout hosted a day of personal discussions led by Amber Nuttall. Charles Perry started the day with stories from Cindy Forde, Rachael A. and Casuarina McKinney-Lambert detailing how their lived experiences and interactions with nature led to their joint desire to protect it. I questioned the panel on whether experiences of nature are vital to ensure its protection. Toby Strong Cinematographer Creative Director keynote speaker delivered my favourite moment of the week with a powerful keynote on his experiences filming nature documentaries alongside Sir David Attenborough. From the extinction of the northern white rhino to the melting Thwaites glacier guaranteeing 60cm of sea level rise, the keynote was a timely reminder of why we were there. Bringing together speakers from across industries, Natalie Munk’s discussion on mind-body-nature disconnect in the modern world resonated deeply with me, and Ben Le Vesconte of Vivobarefoot reminded us of the bio-mechanical benefits of being closer connected to nature. It was interesting to see that vastly different sectors such as fashion, motorsport faced similar challenges to those we face at national grid on our decarbonisation journeys, and I was glad to see nature rising in prominence in discussions on sustainability. Huge thank you to Louise Clark-White & Tim Gregory for making my attendance of the event a reality. #LondonClimateActionWeek #Superpowered #Sustainability #Nature
