Totally inexcusable: the management of mackerel fisheries by NE Atlantic coastal states.
I have observed this developing over many years & now able to comment. This is a political failure. We have the science, control & enforcement, & industry good will. https://t.co/qAyi5Ek3xy.

[United Nations @UN]

The ocean is the planet's largest ecosystem, and it plays a critical role in our lives. Yet, it faces several threats.

Each of us can take #ClimateAction to help #SaveOurOcean.

We’ve captured a lot of cool footage of basking shark encounters over the years, but this must have been one of the most epic! This poor shark was harassed by the blue fin tuna for quite some time. The Sea of the Hebrides really is a wildlife hotspot! What will we see this year?!

[HS @helenscales]

I am so glad @iamjohnoliver talked about deep-sea mining. For one thing, I properly laughed about this for the first time ever.

He hits all the key points:
the injustice
greed
greenwashing
need for a moratorium...
and gummy squirrels

Watch it if you can

To save the high seas, plan for climate change - "Strategic planning at a global scale will be needed." Great article in @NatureClimate co-authored by some OSPAR friends - Janos Hennicke, Richard Emmerson, @TammyEDavies of @BirdLife_News https://t.co/EA1KZXiLD3

Nu räddar regeringen Sveriges hav genom förslag om bl.a.
🌊Öka fiskbestånden
🌊Minska övergödningen
🌊Flytta ut trålgränsen till 12 sjömil från hela Östersjökusten
🌊Verka för utökad jakt på skarv och säl
🌊Stärk biologiska mångfalden

Maritime Spatial Planning is not a good to have. It is a must have, as maritime space is becoming smaller.

A main challenge is how to integrate everyone so MSP becomes an ownership based exercise. Dir Gen. Charlina Vitcheva #EMD2024 #MSP #MaritimeSpatialPlanning

[UN Environment Programme @UNEP]

Law of the Sea Tribunal’s judgment on marine environment & climate change welcomed by @UN_SPExperts. The @ITLOS_TIDM ruling provides timely guidance on States’ obligations on #ClimateChange & explicitly references related #HumanRights issues.

How can we use @UNBiodiversity Global Biodiversity Framework #GBF to address crises like the Baltic Sea? I’m curious #SBSTTA26. https://t.co/Njydex8lwn

Historic @Europarl_EN vote today!

I applaud the positive vote & full support for the EU ratification of the High Seas Treaty #BBNJ aiming to protect 30% of the world’s oceans by 2030.

Now we must bring along all international counterparts to ratify it as fast as possible!

[Virginijus Sinkevičius @VSinkevicius]

At “Our Ocean” conference in Athens today.

I am proud to announce a budget of EUR 3,5 billion, the biggest amount ever announced by the EU 🇪🇺 since the start of “Our Ocean” conferences, & 40 new commitments.

Our oceans ring the alarm & we take full responsibility.

[ICRI Secretariat @ICRI_Coral_Reef]

Global bleaching events do not affect all coral reefs equally and require a suite of global, regional, and local interventions, emphasising the need for regular monitoring, highlights Dr Britta Schaffelke, @AIMS & #GCRMN global coordinator #4GBE

Our new #PNAS paper comparing different types of marine protected areas (MPAs) shows that well-managed fished MPAs can provide strong conservation benefits, even similar to no-fishing MPAs
