What a fab afternoon @LauriestonPS running lab workshops to see how ocean acidification can impact marine shells! Thanks @LauriestonP3 for having me, some brilliant questions. Fun with natural cabbage pH indicator, and shells!
We had an action packed afternoon of learning today! We were lucky enough to have a visitor with all the knowledge about our topic, marine biologist @FitzerSusan from the University of Stirling! We learned about the effects of climate change on the ocean and how this affects 1/2
