In light of my latest series on the UN Ocean Conference, I am sharing here big positive news that flooded my feed in September.
First, the High Seas Treaty, also known as BBNJ: the Treaty for the Protection and Sustainable Use of Biodiversity Beyond National Jurisdiction. This international agreement that aims to better protect the ocean that is outside of national boundaries, (2/3rd of the Ocean) received the 60 ratifications to become law.
Second, the World Trade Organization's Agreement on Fisheries Subsidies also entered into force. This ensures a pathway for all WTO members to roll back harmful fisheries subsidies in order to restore ocean health.
I include two quotes that I found as LinkedIn posts, from Farah Obaidullah -Ocean advocate and Founder of the Ocean & Us- and Alfredo Giron Nava -Head of Ocean Action Agenda at the World Economic Forum.
