Trawling in marine protected areas? What's that all about? Join us as we learn from experts why protecting areas of the sea is an essential tool for marine conservation, what some of the pitfalls are, and how MPAs help tackle the climate and biodiversity crisis.
 
This is a huge topic to tackle but we are in safe hands. We are joined in this episode by Dan Laffoley who held the global honorary role as Marine Vice Chair for the World Commission on Protected Areas for 17 years and by Daniela Sturm, who wrote the article on large-scale marine protected areas which featured in the October edition of The Marine Biologist magazine.
