Greenhouse gases are at the highest levels they have ever been over the last 800,000 years. This rapid rise is a problem because it’s changing our climate at a rate that is too fast for living things to adapt to. This sounds like an environmental catastrophe... what’s it got to do with human rights I hear you ask? Well, like most intersectional global challenges, the issue of climate change is directly linked to several of our human rights.

CBS recently announced their new gameshow The Activist. The show will be hosted by three celebrities: Usher, Priyanka Chopra Jonas and Julianne Hough and will premiere on October 22... and the basic premise of the show is that it “pairs advocates from the worlds of health, education, and the environment with famous figures in a series of competitions that’ll take the winners—and their ideas of seismic world change—to the G20 Summit in Italy.” Based on what we do know about the show, I want to talk about some key criticisms that stand out to me, and why this show sounds like a missed opportunity to make engaging in social change more accessible to the mainstream.

Today for R U OK DAY our very own Loghlin Patrick brings you a bonus episode all about mental health & lockdown for young Australians. 

You can read Loughlin's full article, watch the ABC Q&A clip, or watch Loughlin's interview with former Mental Health Commissioner Nicole Gibson here: https://humanitarianchangemakers.net/we-need-to-talk-about-mental-health-and-covid-before-its-too-late/ 

There's light at the end of the Covid tunnel for two states this week, but another has lost control as the PM scrounges for more Pfizer doses. The Government has passed recommendations from the Respect@Work report, but nowhere near as many as promised. And human rights abuses are exposed in Tasmanian prisons, while Queensland calls time on single use plastic.

Overseas, devastation caused by Hurricane Ida in the U.S. has led to a strong statement on climate from President Biden. Plus gender identity is in the headlines, with safeguarding claims about a gender clinic in the U.K, while China cracks down on "effeminate" male celebrities.

And the Paralympics have come to a close, with Australian Paralympians securing pay equity after public outcry. If only the disability equality campaign launched off the back of the Games had checked their own house first...

The Covid situation isn't getting any better, with outbreaks continuing in three states. Vaccines could be a way out, with Victoria seeing record bookings and access to be opened to children. But that's not stopping Queensland from building two quarantine hubs to keep out the great unwashed from the south.

Overseas, terror in Afghanistan sees U.S. drone strikes resume, with children caught in the middle. Back on U.S. soil, hundreds of thousands face homelessness after the Supreme Court struck down a case of CDC overreach. And in the UK, fast-food chains are the first victims of the country's worst supply chain crisis in nearly 40 years.

At least we have the Paralympics to distract us - just don't ask how much the athletes get for their medal-worthy performances...

Letter writing is a powerful tool in activism. The best thing about letter writing is that it's a very personal, non-confrontational form of activism, making it great for anyone who is keen to get involved in activism but not really sure how. It doesn’t take much organising to gather a group of friends, get some pens, paper, envelopes, and stamps, and write letters to people who have the power to make big decisions. If you want to ask your MP to take action in response to the current situation in Afghanistan (or any political issue) this episode will tell you everything you need to know about how to write a letter.

The sixth assessment report from the Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) does not make for particularly uplifting reading— You have probably seen headlines about "code red", "unequivocal human influence" and 1.5C of warming by 2030. So, how can we shift public opinion to care about the issue of climate change and provoke action? In this episode we're diving deep into shifting public opinion.

This week has brought fresh Covid chaos to Australia, with New South Wales recording its worst day of the pandemic (three times) and lockdown extensions in Melbourne and Canberra. But "doses of hope" are on the horizon as the country's vaccine program ramps up. There's also been trouble in court for the Federal Government and an ABC journalist.

And there's been even bigger developments internationally, with Afghanistan falling to Taliban control and the IPCC issuing a climate warning as wild fires rage across Europe. Also in the Anglosphere: a rare mass shooting in the U.K, New York's Governor resigns amid harassment allegations, and some news for the #FreeBritney movement.
