"Never before have we had such an awareness of what we are doing to the planet & never before have we had the power to do something about that. Surely we have a responsibility to care for our blue planet." - Sir David Attenborough #BluePlanet2

@iaato_org The #IAATOapp is an amazing resource! Thanks! How often do you plan to update the app and what frequency should we look to update the app using the sync function?
