Happy Birthday #EuniceFoote! 🎂
She would be 206 years old today!

Themes of “eco grief, “climate anxiety” & “compassion fatigue” etc came up again and again at #ICCB2025. But always coupled with the need for hope, optimism, and ACTION. That’s the only viable path forward. Stoked to see this initiative brewing up in the Bay Area, will be supporting from Brisbane!🤙🍻

All of this!

Thank you, Amy Van Nice, thank you for speaking truth out loud but also providing hope! #ICCB2025

There’s a bunch of ways to connect with the SCB Conservation Marketing @scbconsmark.bsky.social working group, and today at #ICCB2025 we announced the first consmark conference since 2021 will be held online during the first week of December 2025! Stay tuned for more!

“Maybe she saw a cool bird”

- legit reason at #ICCB2025 for a mate who’s missing from a meetup 🤷🪶

Legend! 🏆 @meg-shaw.bsky.social not only used memes in her #ICCB2025 talk but showed us the research supporting their effectiveness! Humour and beautifully-designed slides FTW!

#ICCB2025 @meg-shaw.bsky.social: Avoid using photos of ourselves interacting with (especially touching) wildlife b/c it makes others want to do it too & think wildlife would make a good pet & also that the species is less under threat. Plus 41% don’t read IG captions (ie researchers “explaining”)

#ICCB2025 “Please let other people know this group exists!” - current Participatory & Citizen Science working group prez John Cigliano

There’s an open call for nominations for board members. A top priority is to document conservation impact from successful projects.

Stoked to see so many #ICCB2025 delegates posting here! 🤙 Appreciate the opportunity to present in the Participatory & Citizen Science session on behalf of my team; I shared some takeaways on volunteer engagement & retention within a koala citizen science context. And some memes.

Thanks for sharing my takeaways! And oh wow I think this is my first official tag on Bluesky! 🥹 Glad to see you on here and excellent to meet at #ICCB2025!

A plenary of huge encouragement to get the #ICCB2025 conference started from Queensland Chief Scientist & QUT Professor Kerrie Wilson.

Some people hear “optimism” and think:
Unserious.
Unrealistic.
Out of touch.
Let’s bust that myth. Optimism isn’t denial. It’s strategy.
Here’s why we believe in hope with teeth. 🧵

a baby shark is swimming in the ocean with a group of fish and says `` baby shark '' . ALT: a baby shark is swimming in the ocean with a group of fish and says `` baby shark '' .

🧵 Why does some content go viral?

A dance.
A jingle.
A sea shanty.
“Baby Shark” has 14 billion views.

What if we used that same energy, not for a cartoon shark, but for real people keeping oceans alive?

Let’s unpack.

Happy to see things have finally (for the most part) transitioned to #WorldOceanDay i.e. #DropTheS 🌏🏆
Had forgotten my tweets about that ported over here 👀
I made it a “tradition” to post something annoying every year complaining on one platform or other, going back > 10 years!😂🤷 World OCEAN Day FTW

👋 Excited for #ICCB2025 next week, right here in Brisbane! Thinking now’s the time to finally start using this app, hoping to connect with the conservation social science community & especially the @scbconsmark.bsky.social crew - who will be there? Are there any consmark meetups planned?

Social media can both help & harm wildlife. Misused images fuel illegal trade & false perceptions, but they can also drive change. Join us at @iccb2025.bsky.social to co-create guidelines for ethical imagery that supports conservation, not harm.

📅 Sunday, June 15th (Half-day AM)

I think this is where it left off, I'm just going to paste in the links and try to patch the thread together🤞

I transferred my tweets to Bluesky mainly to preserve this thread on Eunice Foote I’d started in 2018. I think some made it through but it got fragmented. 😐 I’ll make an attempt to find them all and post them below 🤷

#EuniceFoote

Just set up a BlueArk transfer from Twitter before nuking my account, mainly to preserve my Eunice Foote thread #EuniceFoote 🤷🤞

👋 Hi new followers! It’s been quite the influx🤔…thanks for following me despite that👇being my sole post! 😂
Guess I’ll give this a go now that you’re all here! Appreciate the prod by @katharinehayhoe.com
a while back & @nedra.bsky.social adding me to the #socialmarketing list for starters 🤙

Stoked to see our paper amongst the top cited @ Journal of Social Marketing over the past year! Thanks everyone! 🤙 Says a lot for the discipline and its commitment to diversity and inclusiveness.

I’ll repost some threads by our team which include the links to download it. 🧵⬇️

Always appreciate the “theory to practice” theme, and @TaylorWillmott @rundlesr & Jess Harris brought it to #ANZMAC2022! Wish I could have played “theory bingo” in person along with you guys!

Great #ANZMAC2022 presentation, @YousefMurooj! Awesome to see #socmar applied to this issue!
