Marine Biodiversity in May

May is home to the International Day for Biological Diversity on 22nd of the month. The theme this year is Marine Biodiversity, a topic very close to my heart. Thankfully sustainable seafood restaurants are becoming more and more popular and if experimental is your thing then look no further than culinary genius Heston Blumenthal.
