Ocean & Climate Change – What we know, don’t know, and how we talk about it

“I will provide an overview of the climate change impacts and risks on UK and European marine and coastal ecosystems.

I will introduce a climate and ocean literacy project which we have been running to empower a wide group of people to get engaged in conservation, protection and provide agency.”
