#NatureBasedSolutions are increasingly being proposed to deal with environmental problems, but uptake has been slow. @bethancoleary et al. @ProfCallum report in @PolicyMarine that improved marketing, communication & #BottomUp implementation will help https://t.co/8xaAjfahy2

Ooops - mischievous spelling typo.

[Marine Policy @PolicyMarine]

Marine Policy has been in the Australian media lately, thanks to a mischievious attempt at misinformation, referring to a non-existent study that we never published. https://t.co/XVRpdBPYHB

@YRanaraja Sorry, but you misunderstand. The problem is not with published & reviewed papers, but with people pretending that we have published non-existent papers. When someone cites our journal for a paper that we have not published, we need to inform everyone that there is no such paper.

Hi all. Someone recently posted on facebook that wind turbines kill could up to 400 whales per year in Australia. They claimed that this was based on a study published in the global journal ‘Marine Policy’. The paper does NOT exist and appears ....

[Marine Policy @PolicyMarine]

@YRanaraja Thank you, but I don't understand what you mean? Most of the people who read the facebook post will have never read our journal. They will just read the post and assume it is true because it is 'science' - why should journals not alert readers to false publication claims?

[Marine Policy @PolicyMarine]

And please notify the editors if you find any posts referring to non-existent papers in their journal.

[Marine Policy @PolicyMarine]

industry used it to undermine health concerns about smoking. The fossil fuel industry has exploited it since the 1980s. If you ever see social media posts citing scientific articles, please check the journal independently (i.e don't click on the link but find your own way there).

After 5 yrs, adoption of the #BBNJ treaty, 19June2023, was widely welcomed. @racheltiller & @Dr_Mendenhall explain in @PolicyMarine 60 nations must ratify the treaty & then governance for new means for sustainable use of #MarineBiodiversity can be applied https://t.co/PYIWOEuvE9
