Blue carbon and the Australian seafood industry: workshop

The Australian seafood industry aspires to continue improving its sustainability in many areas, including reducing its carbon emissions and ultimately achieving carbon neutrality. However, the mechanisms to allow the seafood industry to pursue this are poorly developed. This investment will facilitate a meeting of key seafood industry stakeholders to inform stakeholders about the current state of knowledge and opportunities and determine the extent to which the industry aspires to be carbon neutral and whether blue carbon investments are perceived to be relevant. The workshop will identify the major impediments to the industry achieving its desired goals, and plan concrete actions that can be taken to achieve them.
