Thanks for this. The UW Zoom link seems to not be loading completely for me. Is anyone else having this problem? Is there a button to click to register and is there a fee?

I’ll throw this question out here - should engineers (and others) refuse to work for high emitting clients? Should we refuse to work on oil & gas infrastructures? Or do we have a duty of care to uphold?
