Gosh, what a busy two weeks. I’ve given 4 talks, attended 3 webinars, multiple meetings of the a Circular Economy Working Group I’m in and hosted a meet up of patrons of the website. Not to mention all the other stuff like; phonecalls, emails, podcasts, academic journals, website updates, gardening, housework, parenting and on and on and on. It also looks like the next couple of weeks will chocablock too, with more talks scheduled and a possible interview on national radio.
But fear not I’ll still manage to fit in my bi-weekly antedote to eco-anxiety, and here is this week’s.

The milk shack is cool – glad to see good things happening in my home county 🙂
