On Papua New Guinea’s Independence Day, we celebrate a country shaped by extraordinary cultural and linguistic diversity, from its highlands to its islands and coastal communities. May independence continue to mean space for every community, language and tradition, with women and men able to participate equally in public life and shape PNG’s future.

From last month, some more good journalism on "#KingdomOfPapaala" on #Bougainville, probably the world's most country-like #micronation, led by financial scammer Noah Musingku:

It was great to present my work on fatalism and climate action in Bougainville, Papua New Guinea, in a session on "Emotions in the transition to a no-carbon society" at the Global Tipping Points conference @uniexeter.

I talked about high levels of fatalism - beliefs that the future is predetermined and that human agency is pontless - in Bougainville, how this already reduces climate action, and wonder how this could be a barrier to harnessing potential positive tipping points in populations truly left behind.

Here are my slides 👉https://docs.google.com/presentation/d/1NIEhEWA2IC-4V2FC2ybCLFBmnbcO0ta4p-nhiiTOaIc/edit?usp=sharing

I also learned from @laurafoggrogers the importance of triggering positive emotions to fully engage the population at large, while Genevieve Guenther @doctorvive proposes a very interesting paradigm combining fear, outrage and desire, drawn from her book "The language of climate politics". I think everyone agrees that one size-fits-all type of communication is not optimal and that tailoring the message to the recipient is very important.

#DrJohnRowlatt discussed about how to best engage the UK population, and elderly people in particular, to switch to low-carbon heating systems. @larasningrum_dianty talked about the potential for narratives of hope in low-income countries and in general.

I look forward to continuing this discussion. 🙏 co-panelists & attendants.
