#GoParko from Billabong on Vimeo.

Now, ain’t this telling of the age we live in. Joel Parkinson will soon board a plane on the Gold Coast and fly to Hawaii, land at Honolulu Airport, and drive to the North Shore. It’ll be the 12th time he’s made the trip as a WT surfer. And, maybe the last time as a man who doesn’t own a world title. He’s been close. He’s finished second in the world four times. Twice to Andy Irons, once to Mick Fanning and once to Kelly Slater. He now faces the latter two in a Pipeline decider for this year’s title. And, as per Billabong’s suggestion, if you wanna rally behind Joel, just drop #GoParko in your Tweets and Instagrams. Will Joel look at it? Perhaps not! But, maybe it’s an every-drop-counts scenario.

Strong Evidence for Ocean Acidification Impacts in Southern Ocean

For years, researchers have warned that the increasing acidity of the oceans is likely to create a whole host of problems for the marine environment. Most of these warnings were predictions for future decades as well as theories about possible impacts based on experiments under artificial conditions. Now, scientists have discovered proof that ocean acidification is having significant impacts on an Antarctic marine snail, Limacina helicina antarctica, in its natural habitat. This tiny snail hails from a suborder called the “sea butterflies” because they flap their feet like wings as they swim. They’re also known as pteropods. Whatever you want to call them, they are an important component of marine food webs, and provide food for a variety of species.

Bathurst Downhill Session..!

Bathurst is undoubtedly amongst the best race tracks on the Planet. Driving across Skyline aboard any vehicle is an exhilerating experience in its self, which drastically intensifies as you realise what you've just come up you're about to go down & similtaneously be tackling the fastest downhill S bends in the World... I can only imagine how mind blowingly fun it is bombing it with your mates, as part of the recent Newton's Nation IGSA World Cup event in Australia..

The GREAT Barrier Reef..?

Australian Federal Environment Minister Tony Burke is telling the media that his government is doing everything they can to save the Great Barrier Reef, but at the same time, they're approving - and considering approving more - coal facilities right on the reef.

This ad calls Tony Burke out. It means that he can't walk both sides of the street anymore, and voters can see exactly what he is approving. Queensland, home to the Great Barrier Reef, is also home to marginal seats at the next Federal Election - so that's where we're focusing. Chip in to help put this on the air on cinema screens and TV screens in crucial electorates:

Mushrooms, a better plastic..? - Eben Bayer TED

Eben Bayer is co-inventor of MycoBond, an organic (really -- it's based on mycelium, a living, growing organism) adhesive that turns agriwaste into a foam-like material for packaging and insulation.
