Opening Plenary: A Dynamic Ocean

Pourquoi assister à cette session?
Join us for a dynamic and diverse ocean session focusing on systems, people and economy.
HideDescription
The Ocean, a force that stimulate change and progress within systems and processes. The ocean sustains us. Humanity’s relationship and cultural heritage with the ocean is deeply anchored- from the air that we breathe to the food that we eat to the planet we live on- it is our life support system. It distributes heat from the equator to the poles, absorbs 50 times more carbon dioxide than the atmosphere, carries 90% of the world traded goods. Our ocean economy is worth trillions- we need to protect our assets. The ocean needs our care. Urgent CPR is needed to Care, Protect and Revive our ocean.
