This #WorldOceansDay, we're sharing Bren School and UCSB research from the past year that has made a tremendous impact in better understanding ocean health and sustainability, and celebrating the people working to solve environmental problems. 🌊🐟🦀🐋 https://t.co/wsPWD5CUEt
"Does sustainably managing the ocean over the next 30 years mean we will produce more food, or less?" Bren researchers and an international team of experts answer say yes, and it could be more climate and biodiversity friendly than land-based food.
