Meet our community partners pre-screening and find out what they do over free drinks from our Official Drinks Partner, Sluggr. Acid Ocean's director of photography Simon Enderby will introduce the film, which documents how marine scientists across the world are tackling ocean acidification, one of the most urgent environmental challenges facing our planet today. Covering almost three-quarters of the Earth and producing
most of the oxygen we breathe, our oceans also absorb much of the
carbon dioxide we produce, slowing down global warming. The film tracks the latest scientific research from the icy polar seas to the world’s most pristine coral reefs. Heading the investigation is Dr
Katharina Fabricius from the Australian Institute of Marine Science who has made a game-changing discovery: Nestled amongst Papua New Guinea’s
stunning coral gardens is a unique reef, a window to the future of our
oceans.Come early for an evening of conversation and laughter with
booths and bicycle-powered short film screenings by our community
partners: ACRES, PM Haze, iDOPT,
Biodiversity Connections and The Pangolin Story. Don't miss the speed
