Words matter in Science Communication

Science communication is an important part of marine conservation. I dedicated my career to SciComm because I feel that telling the public of what is happening to the Ocean is crucial to changing behaviours to live for a better ocean.  However, there are certain times where I have an smh (Shake My Head) moment as a small number of people use certain language that will certainly offend a group of people.  In this episode, I will tell what those comparisons are and why you should avoid using them when speaking about the ocean.  Connect with Speak Up For Blue: Website: https://bit.ly/3fOF3Wf Instagram: https://bit.ly/3rIaJSG Twitter: https://bit.ly/3rHZxpc
