A Sixth Sense to guage our body's internal state
When it comes to well-being we know the  five senses (touch, sight, hearing, smell, and taste), but not everyone knows that we have an additional sense called interoception.This additional sense of our body's internal state. It helps us feel and interpret internal signals that regulate vital functions in our body, like hunger. The Interoception is important for our mental health, it contributes to many psychological processes - including decision making, social ability, and emotional wellbeing, thirst, body temperature, and heart rate.https://www.sciencealert.com/what-is-interoception-and-what-does-it-have-to-do-with-our-wellbeing/amp

Zero Emission Industrial Heat
The Hydrogen Energy Release Optimiser (HERO) converts hydrogen into continuous industrial heat without combustion. This means high-heat, high emission processes such as coal-fired or gas-fired boilers, could be replaced with zero emission options. The inventor of the Optimser, Star Scientific, apparently won the inaugural World Hydrogen Awards’ Industrial Application category and was also awarded the 2020 S&P Platts Global Energy Awards’ Emerging Technology of the Year. Mars Food Australia, is looking at a piloting the technology in its manufacturing operations during 2022 and 2023.

AUSTRALIA DAY: Let’s Celebrate Our Unique Heritage
Opportunity exists to recognise and build on the heritage of all the groups that make up today’s Australian community. Noel Pearson and the Referendum Council have proposed a model of ‘three great streams’ to acknowledge the different but equally important core groups who make up the Australian population: ·      The Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander peoples and cultures; ·      The British institutions and histories which are the foundations of our liberal democratic system; ·      The rich range of other cultures, faiths and ethnic backgrounds that contribute to our multicultural society. Let’s celebrate our rich heritage this year!
