'In early 2022, we know that most readers yearn for a reprieve from living in ‘interesting times’. Under the cloud of a continuing pandemic, we have watched in horror as floods threaten so many fellow residents in Australia and as war wreaks havoc and worse in Ukraine. The editorial team as a whole extends its heartfelt sympathies to the current victims of climate change and of Vladimir Putin’s megalomania. On social media we have been at least gratified to share with followers the store of excellent articles we have published over 19 years on environmental disasters and the Ukrainian-Australian relationship.' (From the Editors : Introduction)
