RSVP for this event on the Adelaide Climate Action Week website here.
Join Divers for Climate during Adelaide Climate Week for a national online briefing exploring the ongoing impacts of South Australia's harmful algal bloom and what it means for the future of our marine ecosystems and coastal communities.
More than a year on from the unprecedented algal bloom, we're bringing together scientists, dive operators, and ocean advocates once again to share the latest updates from the frontlines. We'll discuss the continuing ecological impacts, including the concerning absence of Whyalla's iconic giant cuttlefish aggregation, and explore what these changes mean for marine life, tourism, and the communities that depend on healthy oceans.
