The language of the Anthropocene has it wrong: not all people are equally responsible for climate breakdown. The global North has contributed 92% of emissions in excess of the planetary boundary. The global South has contributed 8%.

1.9 million people displaced, essential civilian infrastructure decimated, refugee camps bombed, widespread famine, malnutrition, infant dysentery, people reduced to eating animal feed... And the US government vetoes a ceasefire. It is pure depravity and everyone can see it.

The #MSP4BIO General Assembly in Cádiz, Spain, concluded with a visit to one of our pilots, the #BayofCádiz. 👉🏻Partners observed traditional fishing activities, engaged with local fishermen and NGOs to discuss their challenges, and explored restoration activities and solutions.

Super interesting visit to the #BayofCadiz MSP4BIO_Project test site where we learnt about close interactions between human activities and the dynamics of the wetland system!

Thanks for the feature EMB ECOPs network! My work on MSP and conservation is with the MSP4BIO_Project which I am working on at Flanders Marine Institute - VLIZ , happy to connect with other ECOPs!
