Beginning Song for the Blue Ocean

You will be reading Song for the Blue Ocean by Carl Safina this semester. The book was written a decade ago, so it should be interesting to see how things have progressed since then. On page 13 of the book Safina introduces the "International Commission for the Conservation of the Atlantic Tunas" (ICCAT), which he says would more aptly be named the "International Conspiracy to Catch All the Tunas". Read through the first chapter of the book (to p.24). Browse through the ICCAT web site. Do a bit of "digging". What do you think?

The Blog was initiated as part of the inaugural "Sustainability Across the Curriculum" workshop, held at SMU on May 12, 2010. This is part of the Teacher Scholar programme for 2010-2011. If you have any posts, curriculum, ideas or inspired content that you would like to include, please send it to Dr. Cathy Conrad, the 2010-2011 Teaching Scholar, Associate Professor of the Department of Geography. I look forward to moderating this site and linking useful and relevant information. I hope you find it useful!
