It's #WorldOceansDay! This year let's think about the lesser known heroes of the ocean — there is about 100x more life in the ocean than people realize. Dive into our latest blog on the unimaginable abundance of ocean life. theoceanagency.org/blog/the-unima…

When we connected with @NASA astronauts from the Southern Ocean, people had heard of The Overview Effect, but who knew about The Oceanview Effect? 4 months on, we are excited to say that you can vote 📲 to see a panel on this exact topic at 2024’s @sxsw 11thhourracingteam.org/news/vote-for-…


Our view of the world has improved over time, but not as much as you might imagine… We still have a terrestrial perspective that is preventing us from seeing the importance of the ocean and undermining our ability to solve #climatechange. theoceanagency.org/blog/why-its-t…

A historic milestone has been reached following nearly two decades of negotiations. Negotiators agreed on the text for new legally binding agreement that aims to ensure the conservation and sustainable use of marine biological diversity of areas beyond national jurisdiction.

I can’t wait to do my first TED talk in Boston this month. I’ll be speaking about the ocean perspective and how changing our view of the world is one of our biggest opportunities for creating change.

“Concluding a robust #HighSeas Treaty is a critical step for the international community to show it has the will to address the ocean crisis we face today. In other words, #BBNJ is the baseline of ocean action, by the @UN membership”. - Tiago Pitta e Cunha, CEO of @OceanoAzulF

It's #WorldSeagrassDay, and @11thhourteam is celebrating with @theoceanagency's 7 things absolutely everyone should know about seagrass! Find out why this flowering plant (not seaweed) is so spectacular -> 11thhourracingteam.org/news/7-things-… 📷 Ben Jones / Ocean Image Bank

Seagrasses are found in almost every coastal country. They offer protection to marine life, filter our water, absorb carbon and help reduce storm impacts on land. Maybe we should celebrate them for more than just a day! #WorldSeagrassDay theoceanagency.org/toolkits/seagr…

It’s #WorldSeagrassDay!🌊🌱 🌱 Seagrass is found around the globe, from the tropics to the colder temperate and arctic regions. It supports high biodiversity, removes carbon from our atmosphere and can help protect our shorelines from erosion.

Now you see it, now you don't. @theoceanagency's 50 Reefs initiative has resulted in over $93m in funding for the reefs identified and is used by the Global Fund for Coral Reefs to target investments 👏 📷: @theoceanagency #fourthelement #coral #coralbleaching #reefs #protect

The #HighSeas are 54% of the planet and 60% of the ocean. Efforts must continue to work towards the establishment of a robust High Seas Biodiversity Treaty to protect marine biodiversity and help the ocean to recover. #BBNJ #IGC5 #ListenToTheOcean #MPAs #ProtectBlueNature

A great article from @insideclimate about the importance of the climate resilient coral reefs of the Northern Red Sea, mentioning @theoceanagency’s work to get them protected. insideclimatenews.org/news/31012023/…


The Ocean Agency Reposted

The Red Sea could be a climate refuge #ForCoral with adequate protection of the region's heat-tolerant coral reefs 🪸 Learn more in this article by @insideclimate, which mentions #GCRMN data on how the world has lost around 14% of its corals since 2009 👉insideclimatenews.org/news/31012023/…

Wetlands are the ‘kidneys of the earth’, filtering pollution, storing carbon and buffering against storms. We cannot have healthy oceans and rivers without them. Happy #WorldWetlandsDay! 💧🐟🌿
