As I do every #xmas, I just donated to @Oceana to protect the oceans. They lead important research & impactful campaigns to end #IUU, reduce #plastic, and lobby for key legislation to strengthen marine ecosystems. Join me https://t.co/a18Kgp2lnn! Thx @OceanaEurope @danadmiller

As I confirmed during the meeting my door is always open.
