Ocean + Climate 2020
Climate change is dramatically impacting the earth’s ocean, threatening both the organisms living within it as well as the livelihoods of the humans along its shores. But the depths of the ocean aren’t simply troubled waters – they are also an arena for solutions, collaboration and discovery.
Through a two-day online workshop, the Institute for Journalism & Natural Resources gathered a host of experts from across the United States to discuss the complicated relationship between climate and ocean, current impacts and future possibilities.
