I'm very excited about this position. For one thing, it's a a dream job if you like mobilizing and supporting conservation action for the ocean. For another, I get to work closely with this person.

34% of species comprehensively assessed on the IUCN Red List have #agriculture documented as a direct threat.   With better designed and targeted policies, we can benefit both biodiversity & agriculture. Lear more in our new flagship report. bit.ly/3YfrzcR #COP16Colombia

IUCN is highlighting the triple crisis of biodiversity, climate and human well-being. The solution rests in the regenerative power of Nature and the capacity of species to regulate the atmosphere, and maintain functional and healthy ecosystems #conservationworks #WeAreSSC
