Rare Conversations with Julie Packard: The Ocean-Climate Connection
October 8, 2020
Climate change is here. It’s the wildfires from Australia, the Amazon, and America’s west coast. It’s the hurricanes in the Gulf of Mexico and heatwaves in Siberia. And it’s the warming of our ocean, so critical to lives and livelihoods around the world. So, what does climate change mean for life in the ocean? What does it mean for vulnerable coastal communities – in the U.S. and around the world? And what can we do to help?
Join us for an interactive conversation with ocean advocate and philanthropist Julie Packard, Executive Director of the Monterey Bay Aquarium, and Rare Philippines VP Rocky Sanchez Tirona as they discuss the ocean-climate connection, and how a healthy ocean is a critical piece of the climate puzzle.
