We’ve just returned
from the United Nations Climate talks in Egypt known as
COP27, where we were pushing for the ocean's rights to
be recognised. Read on to find out more about our
involvement at these crucial negotiations and to check
out our new short film about how a Universal Declaration
of Ocean Rights could help protect the
seas. | | |
We recently lauched a
short film called The Race for a Universal
Declaration of Ocean Rights. Share with your
family and friends to help us drive more support for
ocean rights!
We also spoke to
conservation news site Mongabay about our work to give
the ocean a voice. Click here to read the
interview. | | |

The ocean is an
unsung hero in the fight against the climate
crisis, locking away carbon dioxide and excess
heat that has been created as a result of
greenhouse gas emissions. We hosted three
events at COP27, the United Nations climate summit
in Egypt where governments agree steps to
limit | |
global
temperature rises, to highlight the damage
that is being done to the ocean, the crucial role
it plays in the health of our planet and how
recognising the ocean's rights could help to
protect it. We were also proud to be part of COP’s
first Ocean Pavilion. Find out more here. | | | |

We need
governments to drive urgent climate action, but we
can also help make a difference by doing our part
and keeping our individual emissions as low as
possible. Opting for a renewable energy provider
and travelling by public transport, bicycle or on
foot rather than car is a good start.
You could also
support carbon offset schemes and invest
in | |
environmental projects around
the world in order to balance out your own
carbon footprint. 'Blue carbon’ projects not only
capture greenhouse gasses, but help to restore
ocean health and provide a habitat for marine
life. Suggest that your company or organisation
also does this to compensate for flights and other
major carbon generating
activities. | | | |
