Just returned from an incredible expedition to the Houtman Abrolhos 🐋 @bluerobotics.bsky.social captured spectacular footage of this unique marine environment. Can't wait to dive into all the video 💙 #ROV #HoutmanAbrolhos #UnderwaterExploration @jcuofficial.bsky.social #JockCloughMarineFoundation

Hit our weather window for the incredible Houtman-Abrolhos 🌬️. As Sylvia Earle aptly describes them, these islands are a vital "Hope Spot" for our ocean. We must contribute to their preservation. 💙 #HoutmanAbrolhos #OceanConservation #HopeSpots #SylviaEarle @jcuofficial.bsky.social @qldmuseum

! 🔬 Our study on Ningaloo Reef shows selective breeding can boost heat tolerance, even over small distances! A promising tool, BUT we must address climate change emissions & boost ocean protection biorxiv.org/content/10.1...

Not always sunny 🌞 Just a bit of wind and rain!

Inspiring opening in Perth of Attenborough's new OCEAN 🌊film. Happy 99th 🎂 to this legend 👇, who continues to inspire and advocate for real protection of nature and sounding the alarm that climate change is "our greatest threat in thousands of years".

Last month I had the privilege to speak with the legendary Sylvia Earle! Her decades of ocean exploration and unwavering advocacy for marine conservation are truly inspiring. A conversation I'll never forget. 🌊 💙#OceanConservation #SylviaEarle #HopeSpot @oceanelders.bsky.social

Incredible night at film launch of Corals Last Stand, about the fight to protect Scott Reef off of WAs coast

Great panel discussion, including folks from
@AustMarConsSoc

As Tim Winton said: "This is the moment for us to make choices."

Globally important marine protected areas like World Heritage Ningaloo and Shark Bay are under severe heat stress 🔥 . Corals are bleaching.
🗣️We must cut climate-harming carbon emissions now if we are serious about protecting these wild places. #RealZero
