No nation can protect our ocean or climate alone. International partnerships achieve stronger governance. A new paper co-authored by Ocean Conservancy colleague Henry Huntington, explores the benefits nations might secure through collaborative Arctic conservation. sciencedirect.com/science/articl…


I'm excited to see our elected officials continue to hold the oil & gas industry accountable. Thank you to Katie Porter and Rep. Tim Kennedy for introducing the Plug Offshore Wells Act (POW Act), developed in partnership with Ocean Conservancy oceanconservancy.org/news/plug-offs…


Thank you, Sen. Cory Booker for supporting #PlasticFreeJuly and championing legislation to bring about systemic, upstream solutions to the crisis of single-use plastic pollution.

Remote island and coastal communities are on the front lines of climate change and will benefit most from this new #waveenergy and #tidalenergy bill from Nanette D. Barragán and Suzanne Bonamici. So glad to see #cleanoceanenergy solutions like this!

En route to #NCEL2024! I’ll be speaking with state legislators about problematic plastics and how to realize #ZeroWaste and #EnvironmentalJustice through comprehensive policy solutions like #EPR, bans on #singleuseplastics, and tackling #microplastics.
