It’s been a cracking start to 2019 here at the MCCCRH and this has been in large part due to these two wonderful people joining our team. Remy Shergill has joined us as the Project Manager of our Changing Climates column, and James Goldie has come on board us as our Knowledge Broker, working between us and the ARC Centre of Excellence for Climate Extremes. We look forward to a great year ahead with these two putting their talents to work all in the name of #climatecommunication To find out more about our staff, check out https://www.monash.edu/mcccrh/people

In addition to being the hottest on record, the Summer of 2018/2019 was also quite dry for Melbourne. February in particular saw a continuation of the trend we’re seeing in dry days, as @janebunnofficial of @7newsmelbourne looked at last night. #climatecommunicators #climatechange #monashuniversity
