"I am passionate about addressing the climate emergency and protecting our livable world for my kids, for the critters, for people in Australian and developing communities. Through the Drawdown Eco Challenge in 2019 I hope to engage people in Australian Parents for Climate Action and others who may even be new to climate on taking small steps... that may then lead to big steps... to support action on climate. I blogged about my 2018 Drawdown EcoChallenge experiences at climatekiss.com "
