Letter from the Editor

Well, here we are again. Welcome to the First Edition of Togatus for 2021!

Everyone has been through a lot in the past few years. We have encountered fires and floods unlike any we have really seen before. These incidents act as a part of a trend toward more unpredictable and wild weather events that will only increase as we move further into Climate Change. At the same time, our natural environment offers up some wonders which cannot be ignored.

So, in acknowledgement of the amazing dichotomy of horrors and marvels that nature gives us every day, the theme of this Edition of Togatus is Earth. To bring attention to sustainability, our natural environment and the changes that we have rort to it and their consequences, we have focused on these themes within this Edition.

As always, we would like to thank everyone who helped make Togatus what it is!
