Articles
I have had the honour of being published extensively across wide and varied publications. In addition to media articles, I have also written many parliamentary submissions on behalf of numerous environmental organisations.
Below, I provide a sample of some of the articles I have had published across a variety of mediums. I also include a sample of articles published by my PGAP co-host Mark Allen.
I was invited to be guest author on the PMC blog. My contribution explores how high and rapid population growth may actually exaceberate inequality, state capture and host of other social justice concernsIndependent Australia.
In 2018, my article “The overpopulation of Australia: We're running out of time” became the most widely read article for that year. This has been my singular biggest literary achievement to date.
My most recent article “Population growth fuelling the housing crisis fire” has also been extensively read and commented on.

Medium
I have published several articles in Medium, including for the ‘Ending Overshoot’ Blog. My favourite of these has to be “My Manifesto for a Post-Growth World” which is the closest I’ve got to explain my broader vision on systemic change in writing.
