Astounding news! A live #whale is worth a lot more than a dead one. @gwcwhale, @ibaleiajubarte and #economists valued #Brazilian whales at $82 billion. This is a new paradigm for jumpstarting a #sustainable #blueeconomy. #whales #NatureBasedSolution bit.ly/3bZzPmu

Conversations @davos20 with @SylviaEarle @max_bello_m @MichaelFishbach @ralphchami. We must put a value on keeping #whales and all #ocean life alive and protected. They are our life support system.
