At #COP15, the Parties adopted a Global Biodiversity Framework that includes 30x30. #theBlueLeaders would’ve liked to see more ambition for the ocean but we will continue working with fellow Heads of State and Ministers until we reach at least 30% fully & highly protected ocean.

[theblueleaders @theblueleaders]

As #COP15 enters the home stretch, the Blue Leaders are working hard to secure an ambitious global ocean protection target: at least 30% of the ocean is fully & highly protected, free from environmentally damaging activities, by 2030. This is how we solve the biodiversity crisis.

[theblueleaders @theblueleaders]

“High ambition is necessary for nature to heal and for humans to survive. Fully protecting 30% of our ocean [by 2030] is critical to ensure that we maintain marine ecosystems vital to human life.” - 🇵🇼 Minister of Agriculture, Fisheries and Environment, Steven Victor.

[theblueleaders @theblueleaders]

“We want to leave #COP15 as Blue Leaders. The ocean gives color & name to our planet and enables our climate system to function. We must achieve 30x30; we must feel proud of our blue planet. Let’s be Blue Leaders.” -🇪🇸 Deputy PM, Minister of Ecological Transition, Teresa Ribera.

[theblueleaders @theblueleaders]

“As Blue Leaders, we’re working hard to achieve 30% ambitious & high quality protection. The ocean is the largest carbon sink to help us address climate change; we must protect it, protect marine ecosystems, our resources, and biodiversity.” - 🇵🇦 VM of Environment, Diana Laguna.

[theblueleaders @theblueleaders]

As the #COP15 clock ticks, the Blue Leaders continue to push for an ambitious agreement, making it clear that the best way to set marine biodiversity on a path to recovery and resilience is to fully and highly protect at least 30% of the global ocean by 2030.

[theblueleaders @theblueleaders]

With Ministers now present at #COP15, the Blue Leaders are hard at work advancing and reinforcing the need to fully and highly protect 30% of the global ocean by 2030 to address the twin crises of climate change and biodiversity loss. 🌊
