I teamed up with
@GeeksWF
to record this podcast on #wifi for #fishingcrew at sea. Why is it important? how 'easy' is it? what should be provided? what is happening currently? @GSA_Seafood have a listen https://t.co/Kn9oAqqZNH

[Melanie Siggs @msiggs]

It makes no sense to waste any #seafood - ethically, environmentally or financially. @OceanCluster can help you identify and optimise usage creating secondary yields with benefits for all. Get in touch! @EarthshotPrize

On recent visit to Iceland, I was impressed by the content of this wall diagram. Before the advent of throwaway consumerism most people saw the logic of the old saying “Waste not, want not.” #FAO Blue Transformation strategy calls for global fish loss & waste to be halved by 2030

I will be presenting the main findings of @FAO SOFIA report on June 8, #worldoceansday, in Costa Rica, and will tweet the main results afterwords

[Melanie Siggs @msiggs]

@ThomsonFiji Delighted you got to the @OceanCluster and caught up with @ArniMMathiesen been working with them for - specifically on 100% utilisation in Namibia - and am honoured to be an Ambassador. If we're going to take a fish out of the ocean we must ensure we use 100% #zerowaste

[Ocean Panel @oceanpanel]

A busy day for the #OceanPanel team in Paris. Conversations focused on priority objectives for the Panel over the next two years, including the UN Ocean Conference here in France in 2025.

[Melanie Siggs @msiggs]

I've been so fortunate to be at the heart of this project for the past 3yrs. I've learned and I'm in no doubt that #zerowaste is critical. Let's talk about achieving full utilisation in your seafood systems, farmed or wild.

[Friends of Ocean Action @FriendsofOcean]

The #NamibiaOceanCluster is officially launched, with a mission to maximize utilization of all #seafood harvest & reduce #SeafoodLoss. Learn how stakeholders in the #Namibian fishing industry worked with @wef's #OceanAction Agenda to innovate solutions! 🐟 https://t.co/O4msLjSPUG

Very pleased to share this report from @GSA_Seafood exploring #bestpractices and recommendations for provision of #WiFi to fishing crew at sea. Opportunity to provide feedback via the link @GeeksWF @integratedmntr @SWFPA @thaiuniongroup @KeyTraceability https://t.co/DjZeOsWvHq

[UN Ocean Decade @UNOceanDecade]

Thank you for joining us on the first day of the 2024 Ocean Decade Week!

#OceanDecade24 is off to a great start, with dozens of events already providing a platform for the global ocean community to discuss how to deliver the science we need for the ocean we want.

@DrRashidSumaila Friends in the area reported a tornado ripped through yesterday

[Shakuntala Haraksingh Thilsted @trinidad1949]

On #IWD2024, let us recognise the many invisible and vulnerable #women in #foodsystems.

Let's increase investment in accelerating progress for women, strengthen policies, and harness technology to bridge the gap.

[Friends of Ocean Action @FriendsofOcean]

We join the call on remaining @WTO members to ratify the deal to end #HarmfulFisheriesSubsidies for entry into force as soon as possible: for the sake of the #ocean, fish, fishers & sustainable #fisheries. 🐟 The WTO's Ministerial Conference in February is a key milestone! #MC13

[Melanie Siggs @msiggs]

@LyellCentre So sorry I couldn’t be with you this year

[Melanie Siggs @msiggs]

@micheljkaiser @HeriotWattUni @LyellCentre Sad not to be with you today, but looking forward to reading more later. Have a terrific day everybody!

[Melanie Siggs @msiggs]

@micheljkaiser Intrigued by the photo choice!

[Melanie Siggs @msiggs]

A new @FAOfish e-learning course on fish loss and waste. Full utilisation takes many routes to using all nutrition and maximising socio-economic value within environmental boundaries. It will become part of good management in time @FriendsofOcean @MSCecolabel @OceanCluster

[Manuel Barange @Manu_FAO]

Happy to share the release of a @FAOfish e-learning course on fish loss and waste. Free, of course, as always for @FAO courses —> https://t.co/PKYVOLzObb
