A brilliant article The Human Rights Commission has handed down a report on racism at Australian universities. Here’s why it fails https://t.co/YFg4Tm1rz6 via @ConversationEDU

In reporting on racism but neglecting to look at it’s structural roots, research does more harm than good.

When tobacco advertising was banned, TV stations and sporting bodies didn't go broke. Neither will they if gambling ads are banned. It's time!
Government needs to listen to communities and do the right thing - implement a total ban on gambling advertising. Now.

let's hope Mark Butler and his admirable Assistant Minister Ged Kearney get some action on various public health issues.
The rise in youth vaping over the last years is no accident — it’s a purposeful, predatory play by industry. Good to be in Brisbane at a regional forum of health leaders, talking about the important work led by @Mark_Butler_MP & @MaryAnneThomas in protecting teens from vaping.

We need Australia to follow suit. Our children are not fair game!

Julia Baird has written a powerful piece about a truly worthy woman. So Kamala is the ‘childless cat lady’? White male power plays its hateful gender card
smh.com.au
Brace for more attacks on Kamala Harris as the hounds of misinformation, juiced on the steroids of misogyny and racism, are unleashed.

So many independent health groups supporting this move. Also vital to have experts without any conflict of interest setting the agenda for food labelling.
Ministers are tightening the screws. If food companies don’t embrace health stars, they’ll be compulsory.

I know this gets played a lot, but it never ceases to stir me. Great tonic when the world gets you down!
This, too, will set the heart singing and the spirits soaring…

Study in British Medical Journal. It's time to act! The amount of sugar consumed per person each day in the UK fell by 11 g in adults and 5 g in children one year after a new tax on sugary foods and drinks was introduced, an analysis of health surveys has found.

It's time for the government to act. We have the evidence needed. Junk food is promoted online to appeal to kids and target young men, our study shows https://t.co/wTEMSTRqH3 via @ConversationEDU

Children, busy parents and young people can be more easily swayed by unhealthy food ads. We found campaigns aimed at all of them.

Worth reading. The Health Star rating needs changing so it genuinely helps people make healthier food choices. Make it better. Make it mandatory.

Industry funding is getting worse. I love prunes but !!!! Industry-funded study of the week: prunes and osteoporosis
foodpolitics.com
I just ran across this one. The Prune Study? To prove that prunes prevent osteoporosis? Who could possibly be paying for this? The study: Koltun, K.J., Strock, N.C.A., Weaver, C. et al. Prunes...

It's time for real Government action! Diabetes and obesity rise to top of national agenda https://t.co/NzCDDp3jES

The primary aim must be prevention, and it is important that every strategy possible is used as part of a comprehensive preventative response.

One of the clearest descriptions of off shore wind I’ve read.
smh.com.au
One of Australia’s foremost voices on energy futures says doing anything other than pursuing renewables with enthusiasm right now is not paying attention to what’s going on.

It's time to review our entire food system!
Hot off the press!! 🔥 our new paper reveals the global multi-stakeholder network of the ultra-processed food industry - now a major feature of global food governance that amplifies corporate power in our food system & presents barriers to transformation👇 https://t.co/18HPk8T9vK

Good to have this data. Better labelling would also help - with no health claims on ultra processed foods!
Australians want to eat well, but supermarkets push unhealthy foods with deals & product placement. Data we released today shows 3 in 5 buy more junk food than intended. Gov't must urge supermarkets to promote healthier options. See our media release: https://t.co/YCU6lSsDmK
