🐋Did you miss yesterday's webinar on #OceanicBlueCarbon? 📢Now that the #MonthofBlueForests series has come to a close, you can watch all five recorded webinars on our YouTube channel! ▶️Catch up on yesterday's webinar here: youtu.be/cf7pLLr3h50

Don't forget Australia's #BlueCarbon efforts?

Ocean life can help mitigate #climatechange! Two new studies advance Oceanic #BlueCarbon science and policy #climateaction COP26 #KeepItInTheSea, see #UNEP story: unep.org/technical-high…

Harness the value of Oceanic #BlueCarbon #WhaleCarbon to support #whale conservation!

Fish poop (oceanic #bluecarbon) transforms ocean chemistry and can store carbon for centuries! vox.com/down-to-earth/…

Is Oceanic #BlueCarbon policy and management feasible? #WhaleCarbon #FishCarbon See our #UAE policy assessment: grida.no/publications/5…

5 “#BlueForests” that are vital to life on Earth! #bluecarbon @NBFNetwork See the UN Environment Programme story: unep.org/news-and-stori…

Are we seeing the beginning of a #BlueCarbon gold rush? Should we be worried about #BlueCarbon cowboys?

Today is #WorldDayOfSocialJustice! With interest in #BlueCarbon projects rapidly increasing, there is a need to ensure coastal communities are meaningfully heard, respected, and involved during such projects. Read our Blue Carbon Code of Conduct for more: news.gefblueforests.org/blue-carbon-co…

How can conversations about social justice be elevated within #BlueForests and #BlueCarbon initiatives? Hear from representatives of Conservación Internacional Ecuador Mikoko Pamoja Blue Ventures and The Peopled Seas Initiative to learn more: ▶️ shorturl.at/fDFHO #WorldDayOfSocialJustice #SocialJusticeDay

Whales & fish included in new #IPCC report as proposed #bluecarbon ecosystems! See Chapter 3, pg. 111 ➡️ bit.ly/WGIICC22 - #WhaleCarbon #FishCarbon IPCC

There are 3⃣3⃣* mentions of BLUE CARBON in the latest IPCC report. Terminology matters! This is a big deal for the #bluecarbon community. Here are a few of my blue carbon takeaways... 🧵(1/6) ➡️ipcc.ch/report/sixth-a… *excluding the 5⃣3⃣ mentions part of citations

Dont forget the IPCC inclusion of finfish, whales and kelp as proposed blue carbon ecosystems!

Today we're celebrating #InternationalWomensDay by highlighting the efforts of women in Gazi Bay, Kenya. This women-run mangrove boardwalk generates revenue for various community projects while helping to restore mangrove forests 📽️vimeo.com/684540192 GRID-Arendal @NBFNetwork

Join our side event at UN #OceanConference in Lisbon on June 29th. Find out about #SIDS & the #BlueCarbon Market! 👉grida.no/activities/857 #UNOceanConference #UNOC2022 #REDD #SaveOurOcean

Questions on blue carbon effectiveness, how about looking at what's being proposed in the #BlueCarbon market?

Is #FishCarbon is missing from your discussions? (which seem to be focused on non-natural approaches)

Yes, integrity of #BlueCarbon science is important. Classic case of undue influence by conservation priorities? I wonder of other aspects of blue carbon ar similarly compromised? 🤔
