The C2PO crew attended Ocean Sciences Meeting 2024 last week and our team had an amazing time catching up with many good friends and colleagues. It's a rejuvenating event where we get to share ideas and explore solutions to pressing issues with some of the brightest individuals who truly cares. The creative energy is almost addictive and certainly will push forward scientific advancement in the coming years. I can’t help but feel hopeful about the collective ocean science community and excited about our future. There are so many passionate young (and young at heart) scientists doing critical work that advance our understanding of nature through knowledge seeking, innovation, communication, and collaboration. Our collective effort helps society to better prepare for a changing planet.
