đ˘I am very excited to finally share what feels like the most important paper of my career so far - the world's first randomized controlled trial of #marine #conservation incentives - out now in @ScienceMagazine's Science Advances:
science.org

@CraigBennett3 @WildlifeTrusts @EllieChowns @carla_denyer @sianberry @AdrianRamsay @GreenJennyJones @natalieben @ZackPolanski @CarolineRussell @ZoeGarbett @EJMilnerGulland @sophusticated @NatDuffus đ Nature must be at the heart of decision-making. đąThe UK is committed to the Global Biodiversity Frameworkâthe roadmap to halt and reverse nature loss by 2030. đš If Labourâs serious, it should lock these targets in law, as proposed in the #CANBill.
