Datan algal reef has lead us (at least me) to a dimension that I never thought of. It is not just a simple conservation effort, but more importantly, it becomes a truly democratic procedure that only happened now in Taiwan. focustaiwan.tw/politics/20210…

Just let the world know Taiwanese are trying hard to keep our ocean for the future generations

This is how we began to collect the signatures for algal reef referendum on January 2021. youtube.com/watch?v=jvn5CX…

University students always play an important role in the progress of democracy in Taiwan in every generation. This time, they choose to protect the ocean. youtu.be/fFfrK-goD-E

Thanks to all the GCRMN-EastAsia coordinators for your friendship. It is so nice to see the final report-EastAsia is the hope

First paper of my PhD student and first report of coral disease outbreaks in warm temperate Japan. Congrats! Are higher latitudes a refuge for corals? Don't rely on it, reduce CO2 emission. authors.elsevier.com/c/1fV8Q,asi2FX…

To friends who wrote me the concern about PRC missile excises across the Taiwan Strait and the West Pacific, WE ARE EVERY FINE! I am threatened by PRC for more than 50 yrs, it is part of my life. Indeed. I worry more about climate change and coral bleaching in Taiwan now.

Excited to spread the word on coral reef beasts! #thisishowMISErolls rsrc.kaust.edu.sa/events/detail/…

Same thing happening in Taiwan that some private foundation plants 1000 coral fragments in the crazy wavy non reefal shore…make them look green!

Dont let Taiwanese fishery bureau knows about this shitty idea. This is definitely not the study I learnt from my PhD in JCU.....

On my way to the #WorldEconomicForum, my first time, to talk up what is basically #biodiversity #justice, the complement to #climatejustice – on the #ocean, on land, and lessons from #Africa. It’s rarified air for this, but transformation and change are needed this decade #wef24

The second part recalls #sharedspaces concepts published with African CSOs Biodiversity Alliance colleagues in 2021 fed by negotiations on the global #biodiversity #targets as well as The Earth Commission's #biosphere integrity boundary. #peoplepositive is as important as #naturepositive to deliver action
