.@FT interview with climate change legend Pete Betts - an example to us all of what an expert civil servant who sticks long-term with a subject can achieve. archive.is/2023.05.04-092340… his book will be really interesting as well.

Can you believe the first offshore MPA in English waters wasn’t delegated until 2008? It true — my colleague Nick Greenwood walks us through regulatory developments at home #CoastalFutures23 @The_MMO
