I wanted to share renowned fisheries biologist (and my supervisor*) Daniel Pauly's lecture at the Smithsonian Natural History Museum last week, which kicked off the International Marine Conservation Congress. I particularly enjoyed his ending, which discussed the potential operating systems for the interface between humanity and Planet Earth...
*But not for too much longer... I submitted my dissertation on Friday and look forward now to blogging with greater frequency.

Congrats Dr. Jacquet (or soon to be). I am torn about whether to offer refutation on your statement that you will now have more time after submitting your dissertation . . .

Further congratulations on your submission...
I am a self-confessed armchair science junky, and discovered the ScienceBlogs site. Thanks for the link to that wonderful lecture. I am always disappointed that more people don't take advantage of all the great, free educational material available on Youtube and other links. If you love the ocean, check out all the great lectures on the "Perspectives on Ocean Science" series hosted on Youtube...
