Its #WorldOceansDay! Where we get to celebrate the 70% that makes the 30% so much happier, healthier & less hungry.
This #CriticallyEndangered bowmouth #guitarfish (Rhynchobatus australiae) is doing its part for the happiness...

🔵 This
🟡 is
🟠 a
🔴 #ClimateEmergency.
The 🌍 has already warmed by more than 1°C.
We can still limit temperature rise to 1.5°C & avoid the worst climate impacts.
But we need more ambition now. Countries must improve national climate plans before #COP27.

Going to be interesting to hear how the #MSP process unfolds at a more local scale versus EEZ wide in #Seychelles.

Dr Ryan Daly @PontaSharks giving us an entertaining account of the life of the #zambezi #bull #shark in southern Africa, including how the 'lunatics' love a full moon. #telemetry and animal tracking is an important and valuable tool, hoping to join forces in Seychelles soon!

Listening in on how #bluecarbon is progressing in South Africa. There have been 138 habitats mapped with carbon estimates, but no inclusion in SA's #NDC for mitigation or adaptation. More opportunity for #UNFCCC progression!

What a great effort, Jeremy! Looking forward to seeing what comes out of this. Good luck! @mahesituated @UniSeyBERI @BlueSeychelles

This article should be read before every Christmas shopping season. Well, any shopping season. Well, actually daily. In fact, write it down. No pen? Then remember it down.

Had a great morning out with the 2nd year Intro to Natural Resource Economics class at the #SeyCCAT 5 year anniversary display. So much going on in the #Seychelles! It's running til Saturday, still time to check it out! #blue #economy

What an amazing effort by all involved for #Seychelles to have 30% of their EEZ declared as #Marine Protected Area #MPA #30by30!

We've got @ANGIEPOPS11 from #Seychelles' #SeyCCAT engaging with visiting students from the #SITStudyAbroad program. Who thought that an environmental talk would spark so much debate in #economics. #BobDylan said it first...

English

... and here it is, an open, interactive conference talking about what's really going on around us. #Seychelles stepping up to bring the #ClimateChange conversation to the people.

Please RT for awareness: The drought in the Eastern Cape needs more attention. Towns have run dry, farmers are shutting down operations and retrenching staff. The EC Govt has not released any drought relief funding and has no plan in place. #DayZero

#Financing #ocean protection is a challenging endeavour but here is how the Seychelles has been strengthening the financing of #Seychelles' Protected Areas Network:

Some of the best learning involves case studies. @UniSeyBERI was lucky enough to have @SeyCCAT CEO Angelique Pouponneau sharing knowledge of their work furthering #Seychelles #BlueEconomy initiatives with visiting students. @UnivSey
SeyCCAT@SeyCCAT
#SeyCCAT was invited to the University of Seychelles to deliver a presentation to third year undergraduate students from the United States who have spent six weeks in #Zanzibar learning about coastal ecology and natural resources management and now they are in the #Seychelles!

Open minds and embracing change can yield amazing results. Filipino fishers changing their behaviour, getting involved in #eco #tourism, saving #whale #sharks and reaping the benefits. @SeyCCAT @UniSeyBERI @alaindeco theconversation.com/poor-filipino-…
