Happy #WorldOceanDay ! I dressed up as the ocean today for #CHOW2023 . Black shoes represent the deep sea 😅

At #CHOW2023 Uncle Sol Kaho’ohalahala spoke about the role of spirituality and our Kūpuna (ancestors) in ocean conservation. We need to take risks to create new ideas & opportunities - “Maybe it’s time for us to be bold enough to take that voyage and know that we are not alone.”

Inspired to hear a discussion of how joy needs to be central to our work as ocean advocates at #upwell2023 . Wonderful to connect at #CHOW2023

'This is the decade where we leave a more sustainable future for ourselves, our children, our grandchildren, and everyone' - Acting Assistant Secretary Jennifer R. Littlejohn at #CHOW2023 .

Kicking off #CHOW2023 , Commissioner Sue Moore asks us to LISTEN in the face of climate change effects on our oceans, while playing bowhead #whale calls in the #Arctic

In his acceptance speech for the National Marine Sanctuary Foundation Leadership award - Raul M. Grijalva talks about his bolo tie: “they asked me if it was a sea urchin. Sea Urchin? No, It’s Nopales!” #Chow2023

On this #WorldOceanDay a big thanks to National Marine Sanctuary Foundation for holding this conversation on how government, NGOs and developers must work with fisheries, Tribes, and communities to meet our #30x30 goals for offshore wind and conservation.

#CHOW2023

What a week! Spending #SemanaAzul + #CHOW2023 w/ the inaugural cohort of Azul's #AzulRisingLeaders filled me w/ hope that a more inclusive #climate movement is here to stay + our #ocean will continue to be one of our best solutions in addressing the #climate crisis. 🌊🏛🐳
