AGP Executive Report
Last update: 9 hours agoMarine Biodiversity & Naming: Researchers Jesús Ortea and Rui Freitas report a tiny bright red sea slug (a shell-less nudibranch) found near Havana and Pointe de Malendure, Guadeloupe, linking Caribbean marine science to the 2026 World Cup through a tribute to Cabo Verde goalkeeper Vozinha—though the proposed scientific name still needs to meet formal zoological rules. Plastic Pollution Across Borders: Jamaica’s eastern coastline is facing a heavy influx of foreign plastic waste with Spanish and French labels, carried by Caribbean currents and trade winds, raising risks for marine life and the food chain and showing why regional cooperation on waste management is essential. Climate & Independence Politics: The International Decolonization Front adopted the “Corte Declaration” in Corsica, condemning French colonial exploitation as driving unemployment, forcing youth migration, and enabling impunity—while also alleging environmental and humanitarian scandals. Sailing & Climate Tourism: Canadian skipper Scott Shawyer is gearing up for the 2028 Vendée Globe solo race, while Dominica’s Secret Bay Resort is expanding with new cliffside villas and spas—an example of how tourism development is being marketed alongside rainforest conservation.
