Marine Conservation News

[Ecodiver]

I would like to see a section where we can exchange marine conservation news and also a section to ask for help with species identification.

Hi Ecodiver,
Yes sure, good idea, as you may have seen in the website and in the newsletter GoodDive encourages and promotes marine conservation.
Let's do that.
I will open a main forum "Marine Conservation", please send me a private message concerning the other points you mentioned. Explain to me how you imagine that and I will see with the administrator to provide you with the best tool we can offer.
Hope to hear from you soon.

Hi Mako

That's great!

There's always some Marine Conservation news to share and petitions to be signed to increase protection for various species.

You could have a sub-section within Marine Conservation for Species ID queries, where divers can upload their photos of strange critters and ask for suggestions from other forum users.
I have a couple of such queries that could start the ball rolling.

Thanks

Ok the forum is open you can start to post
Marine Conservation
About the species identification I will come back on it, I need to clear if this should be in general forum or marine conservation.

Hi Ecodiver,

we now decided to combine the forum marine conservation with the biology. We will start like this because it fits together well, and we can split it, if we see it is necessary with the time.
We hope that this solution is ok for you as well and wait for your first post in the new forum!
Marine Conservation & Marine Biology
