Back home after the last SUST5001 class this semester - dogs excited. Then saw my Geographical Research Commentary on climate change, environmental history & hope/doom/crisis is now on early view with great articles by other authors. Dogs still excited! onlinelibrary.wiley.com/jour…
Our article introducing an enhanced one welfare approach to thoroughbred breeding and racing is now published in the open access journal 'Animals'. Thanks Lorann Stallones and Paul McGreevy for a great working partnership.

I'm SO late to celebrate since I've been off caring for a new addition to the family but it is out! My first ever time co-editing a SI on a topic I am very passionate about! A brief thread to showcase the SI:
Australian Geographer Vol 53(4) is available online now: tandfonline.com/toc/cage20/5… #counterurbanisation #migration #home #regions @KathyMee10 @GeogSocNSW @BuckleCaitlin @NickOsbaldiston
I am promoting an article published in The Conversation last Friday by members of a team I am on. It advertises the link to a provisioning survey that is an important part of our research so we can learn how to handle these issues in the future.

I'm pleased to see Caitlin Buckle and Nick Osbaldiston's edited special issue on counter-urbanisation in Australia in Australian Geographer (53,4). There's great articles by leading & emerging geographers, so do yourself a favour!

New journal, new article - doi.org/10.1093/ooih/ouac001
Includes material on urban planning history, volumetric geography and green infrastructure - perhaps not immediately obvious from the journal and article title but potentially of interest.

At the IGU Congress in Paris. Interesting session with Jonathon Barton from Chile talking about multiple variants of sustainable development in Latin America.
Pleased to be presenting at the rural geography study group seminar at 4pm on 4 May (tomorrow) along with Dr Lesley Crowe-Delaney. The topic is ‘Urban-rural migration' and I will be developing ideas based on tandfonline.com/doi/full/10.…

Very hard to accept that government doesn’t have a “duty of care” in terms of the impact of climate change on our children.
This recent paper in #austgeog seems even more important now as recent discussion on housing and infrastructural shortages in regional areas focuses on the Illawarra, the Gold Coast, Kiama, etc. - important but country towns in rural areas are left behind with this discourse.
