Taylor has the opportunity to speak with an old friend, but first time podcast guest  during this month's episode of The Ocean Decade Show -  Vinicius Lindoso, a Communications Officer with the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission. Vinny provides a great overview of the role of communications during the Ocean Decade and the brand new GenOcean campaign. Taylor digs up her past pretending to be a communications expert to ask the real expert about why communications is so important during the Ocean Decade and why it's been such a focus of the IOC since the launch of the Decade in 2021. Taylor and Vinny also discuss the Ocean Decade's newest communications campaign, Generation Ocean - a new global movement to grow awareness and drive action to protect the ocean. There's nothing more fun than doing a podcast with your friends, and it shows in this month's episode! To learn more about GenOcean, visit the website at www.genocean.org.
