Without the kelp, a forest is only a shrubland. The world needs more kelp (and #oceanaccounts).

@kjbagstad @aries_project @NOAA @ferdinandovilla @balbionthebox @m_pasku @BC3Research @SOMM_alliance @valconmac2 @themoovida @sabgis1 @EU_MARE @azti_brta @sdlanghans @alba__marquez We might start by suggesting the type of partner (e.g., national governments seeking a quick start on #oceanaccounts), content (relevant global/national databases on ecosystem extent/services), resources (person-months of environmental statistician) and startup (AIRES training).

The article suggests "at least we know what we don't know". I still say there are many unknown unknowns showing our ignorance. @oceanaccounts can help reduce ignorance, ambiguity and uncertainty.

Still time to register for this July 12 HLPF side-event on Building post-COVID recovery around wealth rather than GDP. Rob Smith from Canada will be a panelist.

Its a dirty job, but somebody has to do it. See my paper on linking soil science with #SEEA and ecosystem accounting: https://t.co/qFqpNosmIv

[Crystal @CrystalBradlee]

Indeed 💜

It seems less plastics may be flowing into the ocean than we thought. #oceanaccounts may have identified the gaps sooner.

@GemmaVanH2 @UN @UNESCAP @unecestat @UNESCWA @ECAStats @eclac_un Best of luck with the reintegration. It was great working with you and I'm sure we'll work together again.

Congrats, Jordan! Excellent spokesperson for #oceanaccounts. ‘More than just money - What’s the Great Barrier Reef worth?’ on #SoundCloud #np https://t.co/WGiiavIwlZ

@Soulfra Could this be a wakeup call? StatCan did the analysis 20 years ago pointing at the need for a buffer zone to mitigate these effects.

[Michael Bordt @Michael_Bordt]

Great opportunity here and a lively community of practice for @oceanaccounting and @oceanaccounts.

[Michael Bordt @Michael_Bordt]

I thought they'd already done 20%. The more the better for #oceanaccounts.

@mila_ocean OK. Work with that. What is it when it dries up?
