A superb summary of #waterquality issues affecting NI's #marine environment. As well as dealing with the cause (sewage infrastructure investment), we need to value the #ecosystemservices of #shellfish & potential of coastal restoration as a #naturebasedsolution

Just been reading this excellent paper on making #MPAs more effective & equitable using the #MPAGuide, love the infographics on how to assess existing MPAs- something we should be considering locally
