This Platform was created in the early days of the Covid 10 pandemic. It takes a look at the human responses to global health crises (which know no borders) and what we can learn in relation to global heating (which of course also knows no borders). Here we share stories relating to socio-political and economic issues and feature stories of the endeavours of charities and orgs, scientific advances and practical solutions, stories that hold up reason and resolve, exploring a need to hold nature in higher regard, to see and respect a truth beyond the human psyche.
