@COP28_UAE listening to stories of hope and greater political will to save our ecosystems...and then you hear this from Norway who will begin harmful deep-sea mining in the Arctic.
It's a destructive practice with unknown consequences. Red Card! highnorthnews.com/en/norwegian-p…

Great student work from @ATU_GALWAY_SDCA. Exhibition currently open in wellpark, worth a visit for art, sculpture, design, fashion, film, animation and gaming. Love this marine art, would look amazing in @MarineInst reception. I wonder could we make an offer?

Can't believe no-one played this already @OurSharedOcean @MarineInst @Irish_Aid
I do love a geography test - Ireland, St. Kitts & Nevis, Barbados, Jamaica and the Turks & Caicos Islands?
So #SIDS can apply for Travel Grants to promote research internationally? Sounds great 👏

Well done @Giulia_LaBianca, looking forward to reading it. Always happy when the #SeaRover team continues to contribute to #oceanscience

#SIDS (Small Island Developing States) don't have resources to manage ocean health. #Ireland has extensive marine infrastructure / expertise and trying to help where it can.
A great initiative - Irish researchers please get involved! 🇮🇪
