It’s #Ocean Day at #COP29. For decades, the ocean has absorbed the impact of burning fossil fuels. But now, with record-breaking marine heatwaves, ecosystems are reaching their limits – and we’re all #InHotWater. 🌡️
It’s time to #ActForOurPlanet.
Let’s face it: We’re #InHotWater 🌡️
Marine heatwaves push ecosystems to the edge.
From coral bleaching to devastating storms, people and nature are in peril.
It’s time to stop burning fossil fuels.
The ocean – and our future – depend on it. #COP29#ActForOurPlanet

How are you doing with your #NewYearsResolution?
Our #ocean resolution for 2024 should be to keep our collective “I’s” on the ocean: ensuring integrity, inclusivity, integration, implementation & impact - writes @paulimerriman for @RiseUp4theOcean

#BREAKING: Countries at #COP28 agree to transition away from fossil fuels, although fail to commit to a full phase out.
This is significant as the outcome signals the beginning of the end for the fossil fuel era.
Now, we'll need to see this go from agreement to action.
Climate change is pushing ecosystems and communities to their limits. At #COP28@WWF and partners will push for action to accelerate the shift away from fossil fuels and elevate #ocean-climate solutions.

Great #whales are amazing #ocean heroes 🐋 These ocean giants play a critical role in the food chain and are essential to the health of our ocean.
But they face many threats.

Ever heard of deep seabed mining? 🤔
It’s a potential environmental disaster. But it’s a disaster we can stop before it starts.
👇 Communities in Fiji are leading the way to #ProtectBlueNature against this dangerous industry.
