"People protect what they love. They love what they understand. And they understand what they're taught." This was the operating philosophy when I worked at NOAA's Coral Program. Still is.📹 credit: @undoals.bsky.social #OceanHealth #BlueEconomy #ThatsActuallyGood

#TuneTuesday #ThatsActuallyGood the first pop group I got properly into was Boyzone. I discovered them on TV in the summer holidays of 1995 when we were living at my nan's for nine weeks between houses, they were my first album, and Stephen's was the first celebrity death that really got me.

Like other groups I liked as a child (Steps, Five), I didn't keep up with them when they reformed, but Gave It All Away is good, and the video is 😭
