🚨New paper out in @JAppliedEcology . We explore the technological solutions for #biodiversity monitoring appropriate for emerging biodiversity credit methodologies.

[Journal of Applied Ecology @JAppliedEcology]

🌿 Biodiversity credits are emerging as a key solution for bridging conservation funding gaps 💭

With 40+ methodologies now available, Ford et al examine how tech solutions can meet their biodiversity monitoring needs #Conservation #TechForGood

The final nail in the #PhD coffin.. Graduation!! 🥳👩‍🎓So nice to come back to graduate with @sos_bangor_uni and visit the people and places that helped develop me as a scientist. #Anglesey is a stunner and ill forever claim it as my home.

[Helen Ford @helen_ford]

Excited for this to be finally out in the world! Thank you to everyone that helped make this possible. @RemoteReefs @anddavies @jamisongove @naj_graham . Have a read and let me know what you think..🧐 #seascape #bleaching #coral #reef #ecology

#ClimateChange #Trees #Birds #Christmas

714,286 trees are cut down for Christmas cards in the US, releasing 82,619 metric tons of CO2.

7 billion greeting cards are bought in the US every year. That's 140,000 tons of paper just to be trashed.

We have to stop the madness.

Another brilliant @LecReefs Lab retreat. Getting to see old and new faces and being pushed mentally and physically to do things you don't normally do! Very grateful to be connected to such a lovely bunch!

[Oxford Seascape Ecology Lab @OxfordSeaEcoLab]

Next up at #ICRS2022 from the @OxfordSeaEcoLab is @rosalie_wright_'s poster on establishing a #baseline for #coralreef communities prior to island #restoration

✅ France bans plastic packaging on fruit & vegetables to curb the growing plastic pollution crisis.

🛑Will the UK go further & faster in the face of the plastic pollution tsunami?

[#OneLess @OneLessBTL]

A huge thank you to all our partners, funders, pioneers and friends who joined us to celebrate #OneLess at @zsllondonzoo yesterday.

Together we are changing the way Londoners drink water, from single-use plastic water bottles to refilling and reusing, for the sake of the ocean🌊
