Also super excited to share this video about the Blue Green Governance Project, which uses scientific evidence and societal choices to support marine policies with land management practices 🧪🌊🌍

Ohh that’s amazing! We’ll definitely connect!

Also super stoked to be going to a Project meeting in Nice in June and then hopefully the One Ocean Science Conference (🤞)

Bloomberg philanthropy to cover U.S. climate dues after Paris withdrawal Former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg's philanthropy and other U.S. funders said on Thursday they will cover U.S. financial obligations to the UN climate framework after President Donald Trump called for the U.S. to withdraw - for a second time - from the Paris climate agreement.

@mcuban.bsky.social had asked what he could do in the era of the convicted felon Donald Trump. Here's an example.

"Former New York Mayor Michael Bloomberg's philanthropy and other U.S. funders said on Thursday they will cover U.S. financial obligations to the UN climate framework…"

If you find out the answer please let me know 😭 in a very relatable position here

Positive childhood experiences of blue spaces linked to better adult well-being New research based on data from 18 countries concludes that adults with better mental health are more likely to report having spent time playing in and around coastal and inland waters, such as rivers and

The concept of Blue Spaces is the perfect antidote to Blue Monday, so if you're able to get outside today near some water, enjoy it! news.exeter.ac.uk/re...

MaCoBioS = Marine Coastal Ecosystems
Biodiversity and Services in a Changing World 🌍

I really recommend checking out MaCoBioS to anyone who is involve in Blue NBS - it was a vital research project with numerous partners and expertise!

This was filmed at UNESCO Headquarters in Paris and I felt very honoured to be there as part of the MaCoBioS Blue NBS week!

If it talks like a ____, if it salute's like a ____, then it's a ____

But interestingly especially for a tourism hotspot like Cornwall, the council can still manage to find the funds for exceptional levels of street cleaning, roads and infrastructure. Yet the funding and approaches in place to support the people aren’t there

You can’t say people are satisfied when only 20% say that they are!

Graph showing satisfaction with Cornwall Council Housing Services at 22% for 2024

Graphs showing that only 28% of those surveyed are satisfied with the services and support for young people and children in 2024

Graph showing the satisfaction of services for vulnerable adults is around 27%

However once you dive into the services the council should offer it shows that the people aren’t satisfied

So my local council have just published their Residents Survey for 2024 and are patting their backs about it. On first glance they’ve done well..

The heartbreak and relief of when you find a paper that is actually relevant to your PhD #Phdlife

One skill that I have learnt recently is that I can write better when listening to audiobooks. Music absolutely not but audiobooks are a game changer

The good news is that my neighbour is playing EDM really loudly and its keeping me awake

I'm currently on my 11th hour and my to do list keeps growing

Can we talk about how many hours it actually takes to do a PhD

Getting out into the field and talking to practitioners/ representatives from local communities is so refreshing - it also provides me with hope for community lead nature recovery projects

Hi Bluesky ✌️ I'm Daisy a PhD student looking at the connectivity between people and marine & coastal nature-based solutions 🌊 I love being out by the sea, either stumbling along coastal paths or attempting to surf.. I'm also quite partial to a good cup of coffee or a lil half pint ☕
