Living near a data centre, first bird flu case confirmed + moist Mondays
About this episode
Data centres have been popping up all around Australia as our use of AI increases, so what's it like living near one? And should we be worried about the environmental impact?
Plus, it has been a waiting game, but the second case of bird flu has been detected in Western Australia, meaning Australia is no longer free from the virus.
And, we hear from some young Aussies who are coming up with creative ways to combat loneliness in their community.
