Newsflash from Dr. Earle in the Hague, Netherlands

January 23, 2012

“This week I’ll be speaking about ocean issues to 3100 high school kids from 200 countries at the Hague, simulating UN procedures with real UN delegates participating.
Andrew Pudvah and Enric Sala arranged for me to give the keynote talk at the Hague today to schoolkids brought in by the THIMUN Foundation (The Hague International Model United Nations) to simulate UN proceedings, this year (their 44th) focusing on Oceans and Seas — 3100 kids, 200 countries, immensely inspirational.
International justice is a major topic at the Hague, and I thought it appropriate to make a pitch for justice for nature, especially the Blue.”
