Through this series of co-desig ned webinars\, participants will gain a better understanding of mCDR techn ologies and approaches\, issues and areas for concern\, and learn how to e ngage. \n\nWebinar 1: Overview of marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR) sc ience\, policy\,and decision-making\n\nDate/time: Friday\, June 23 at 11am -12:30pm PDT\n\nPanelists:\n\n Dr. Jessica Cross\, NOAA OAP/PMEL\n Dr. S arah Cooley\, The Ocean Conservancy\n Dr. David Koweek\, Ocean Visions\n Dr. Chris Sabine\, University of Hawaii\, Manoa\n\nRegister HERE!! https ://bit.ly/ccan_mcdr\n\nBackground: Marine carbon dioxide removal (mCDR) is being considered as a potential solution to global climate change. Howeve r\, mCDR poses unknown\, potentially serious risks to the marine environme nt and the communities that depend on those systems. Stakeholders who depe nd on marine resources\, alongside governments that will set policy\, regu lation\, and evaluation schemes\, must be included in the decision-making process to ensure mCDR observing capability is responsive and comprehensiv e. This is particularly true for traditionally excluded groups\, including indigenous and other local communities\, who must be considered at every stage of the development process. \n\nAbout the series: The California Cu rrent Acidification Network (C-CAN) webinar series is intended to create a direct dialogue among industry members\, tribes\, natural resource manage rs and scientists within the California Current Ecosystem. With awareness of\, and access to\, the research and its applications and uses\, particip ants will be able to collaborate to better understand and adapt to ocean a cidification moving forward.\n\nPast C-CAN webinars: https://c-can.info/wo rkshopswebinars/ \n\nAbout C-CAN: The California Current Acidification Ne twork (C-CAN) provides an ongoing regional forum for the synthesis and dis tribution of the latest scientist\, stakeholder\, and participant observat ions and needs. Established in 2009\, C-CAN enhances regional collaboratio ns and communications related to ocean acidification and marine carbon rel ated topics about the current state of the science\, approaches to monitor ing\, and vulnerable species and ecosystems among other concerns. \n\nAbo ut Cal OST: The California Ocean Science Trust (OST) is a nonprofit dedica ted to convening science expertise to accelerate progress towards a health y\, equitable and productive coast and ocean. We were created by the Calif ornia Legislature in 2000 to bridge the gap between science from our unive rsities and institutions\, and sound ocean policy and management. We work on priority issues in California where bringing people together around a s cience-based conversation can help find a path forward where none currentl y exist\, and offer spaces for dialogue removed from jurisdictional bounda ries.  END:VEVENT BEGIN:VTIMEZONE TZID:America/Los_Angeles X-LIC-LOCATION:America/Los_Angeles BEGIN:DAYLIGHT DTSTART:20230312T030000 TZOFFSETFROM:-0800 TZOFFSETTO:-0700 TZNAME:PDT END:DAYLIGHT END:VTIMEZONE END:VCALENDAR
