Nations reach accord to protect #MarineLife on #HighSeas: too little too late. or the first time, United Nations members have agreed on a unified treaty to #protect #biodiversity in the high seas - representing a turning point for vast stretches of the planet where #conservation has previously been hampered by a confusing patchwork of laws. #UNConvention on #LawoftheSea came into force in 1994, before marine biodiversity was well-established concept. #ClimateDisaster #ClimateChange #Environment

Looking forward to our discussion.

The World Made a #BiodiversityPact, But We Aren’t Part of It https://www.motherjones.com/politics/2022/12/cop15-2022-un-biodiversity-convention-united-states/ Only two countries in the world have not joined the #UNConvention on Biological Diversity: the Vatican and the US. Few have missed the Holy See, but the US not joining the CBD 30 years ago has been described as the major holdout #environment

Amazing people I got to spend time with this weekend at #Unconvention

I've been quiet over the weekend while enjoying #Unconvention in NJ.
Don't be surprised to see short stories calling out Vest Boy, Giggles, & Red Jacket Bro sometime in the future... but they were the only problem children we had to deal with at an otherwise really nice event with lots of good bands, great DJs, and dancing.

Having a great time at #Unconvention so far! Fantastic performances by Mary Lous, Esoteric, Ego Likeness, and Light Asylum. Great DJs in the dance room including a roaring set from DJ Boss Savage.
