Second panel session with Dr Rachel Tiller from @sintef.bsky.social, Jenevieve Pons from Jacque DeLor and #Antarctica2030, Matts Johansen from Aker Biomarine, Rudolfo Werner from ASOC!

This morning at #UNO3 I was on the #TaraExplorer meeting with the #Antarctica2030 group that I have been involved in for a few years. We discussed how the Antarctic can be part of the 30x30 requirements under the Kumning-Montreal Agrement @emarineboard.bsky.social #MarineLife! #Science
