After the September “Oceans in a High-CO2 World” Meeting in Monterey, CA, the NOAA West Coast National Marine Sanctuaries hosted a workshop titled “Effective Practices for Communicating Ocean Acidification.”  This workshop brought together scientists, educators, and communications experts from federal agencies, academia and research, aquariums and museums, environmental non-governmental organizations (NGOs), and other organizations to discuss key messages, tools, and case studies to use when educating the public about OA.

The workshop summary can be found here.
