First, we hear a short piece from an episode on the Podcast Brunch Club - it’s a free event, it’s virtual, it’s like a book club, but it’s about podcasts, in this case, geo-engineering, simply listen to them and talk about what you heard with other listeners.
Our first of two stories from The New York Times is also about 
geo-engineering: “What’s the Least Bad Way to Cool the Planet?”;
“As Bikers Throng the Streets, ‘It’s Like Paris Is in Anarchy’”;
The Guardian has four stories that relate to the climate crisis: 
“Coffee bean price spike just a taste of what’s to come with climate change”;
“39 Insulate Britain activists arrested after halting traffic on M1 and M4”;
“From Corrie to car ads, carbon literacy training pushes climate to the fore”;
“Poor countries must not be forced to take on debt to tackle climate crisis”;
“Australia’s ‘black summer’ bushfires pushed 11 bee species closer to extinction”;
From Friends of the Earth Melbourne: “Offshore gas levy will protect oceans and communities”;
The Melbourne Age tells readers: “Thirty-six new electric buses by 2025 as Melbourne company awarded $2.3b contract”;
Now it’s two stories from Medium:
“Who Is Responsible for Global Warming?”;
“Global Warming and Arctic Polar Amplification”;
Listen to Joel Berger on ABC: “Joel Berger: Extreme conservationist”:
We have a trio of stories from SBS:
“Big nations urged to heed climate activists' demands for action ahead of UN COP26”;
“Scott Morrison confirms he's unlikely to attend UN climate summit in Glasgow”;
“Australia's climate commitments 'inadequate', Turnbull says”;
From The New Daily: “Alan Kohler: Australia’s net-zero target must include legislation”;
From Inside Climate News, it’s: “Warming Trends: Cruise Ship Impacts, a Buoy Inside the Hurricane’s Eye and Anticipating Climate Tipping Points”;
Democracy Now! tells readers: “Right Livelihood Award Goes to Environmental Activists, Rights Defenders Across the Globe”;
A fashion label that is climate-friendly from a factory that is ethically certified.
