Hi Nick Martin , Belatedly joining here, but I was super humbled and honored to be listed here. Thank you! I am still at the beginning of my climate learning through the course of Terra.do last year, and the membership of MCJ Collective, as well as my publication of a weekly newsletter, 🇯🇵 Japan Climate Curation [ https://bit.ly/JapanClimateCuration ] for a nearly a year now. I learned a lot from the thread here, and I am looking forward to learning and contributing back through your posts. 🙂
