Morning all, and here's another three articles from my mainstream media feeds about "what went right" rather than "what went wrong".
World-first 'solar-glass' developed in Perth hopes to make deserts bloom by Michelle Stanley (ABC Rural, Western Australia)
"Western Australian scientists have developed what is believed to be a world-first clear, energy harvesting glass which, if used in greenhouses, could produce crops in any climate or season."
Kimberley wet season causing havoc but creating tourism opportunities by Erin Parke (ABC Western Australia)
The wet season in the Kimberley this year (the wettest on record for some communities) has created a number of tourism opportunities through replenishing a lot of waterfalls - local tourism operators want to rename the season "waterfall season".
Adelaide Fringe show 41 Seconds tackles suicide impact by Caroline Winter (ABC South Australia)
Content warning: extensive mention of the impacts of suicide. This one counts as a "what went right" because it's about trying to raise awareness of mental health issues, and trying to get a conversation started about suicide and its impacts. The play profiled in the article, 41 Seconds, is playing at the Adelaide Fringe festival at present.
So there's my three for the day. If you've found any articles about "what went right" in your news feeds, why not share a link in the comments.
Admin note: Please be aware comments on this journal are screened, and get unscreened when I receive notification about them. Unfortunately, this week is O-week (Orientation week) for my university, so I'm not home as much as I previously was. I'll try to check things when I get home each day, but otherwise comments will be unscreened the next morning.
