It's quite something that the world's top scientists put out a synthesis report that essentially says civilization as we know it will end unless the world comes together to stop rapidly expanding the fossil fuel industry but to instead rapidly end it, and almost no one cares


I adore nudibranchs. Some of the most amazing looking creatures on the planet.

Without taxonomists we would make little progress in ecology, biodiscovery or the work to classify and map #marineecosystem types. Thank you to all the taxonomists, curators and #museum staff who build this foundation and Happy World Taxonomist Appreciation Day

Although today is the last day of @IMPAC5Canada, the movement for ocean conservation will only keep growing! With ocean conservation passionates like @KBoerder and Vincenzo Corelli, who presented their work at IMPAC 5, we can reach 30 by 30! #IMPAC5 #MPA #ProtectedArea

I think this is my favourite photo from last night. A bunch of Coryphella verrucosa feeding on Ectopleura crocea.
