Government flags massive expansion of Antarctic marine park for untouched Heard and McDonald Islands. The marine park that includes the subantarctic Heard and McDonald Islands is set for a massive expansion, with the Australian Federal government planning to protect an extra 300,000 square kilometres of ocean.

H&MI is one of my favorite things to appear on Worldle since, once you know of it, it's pretty recognizable.

Also: two thumbs up for expanding marine parks.
