Australian students walk out on school to protest lack of action by Australian government on climate change.

@IPBES thanks for making this link. Message would be stronger with #ClearNounPlusVerb instead of “strongly impact”. Can you make it more concrete to help people understand what’s at stake and what the options are?
My fellow scientists: Let’s stop saying “negatively impact“. Let’s name and specify the impact. Formula: clear verb + noun we care about. Kills bees. Increases deforestation. Worsens inequality. Increase asthma for kids. #scicomm Inspired by @ourwarmregards 👏🏾
