We’ve seen the health risks #ClimateChange can bring.
And yet, decisive action comes so slowly, if at all.
How can we change that?
By generating more evidence of climate’s health impacts and making them visible.

Read yet another 'Alzheimers, what a terrible illness' article yesterday, written by someone with only a fleeting knowledge. Please could you all stop telling me how awful/terrifying/horrible my condition is? It isn't the reality of my world.

Really brilliant video from @willygilder01 drawing on his experience as a journalist to interview others living with #dementia. Loved listening to people telling their own stories
bold mini commission 'Unheard Voices' from @willygilder01 realising 'The voices of people with #dementia are rarely heard' so he interviewed his peers living with dementia, talking about themselves, their lives, and what they would like people to know vimeo.com/771134365
