Rod Oram used to diligently pass on any speaking gigs and panels he couldnt get to, to try to lift up the next batch of climate reporters. He was so generous and genuine. I'm very sad to hear he has gone.
@eloise_gibson Same. His was a vital and important voice. Totally believe he was as thoughtful and considerate as you say
@eloise_gibson So incredibly gutted to hear this news. Rod was one of the true climate advocates. So sad for his whanau.
@eloise_gibson This is an utter tragedy. So sorry for all his colleagues.
@eloise_gibson He contributed to a book my wife was writing, she couldn’t speak highly enough of him.
@eloise_gibson Oh no, 😢. I just enjoyed seeing him at the Fabian’s event in Wellington last month. I was encouraging him to reopen some of his big thinking from 15-20 years ago, which feels truer today that when he wrote and spoke on it then.
