The State of Ocean-Climate Action in World of Accelerating Change

As the interlocking ocean and climate crises intensify and accelerate, governments, communities, researchers, investors, and innovators are grappling with how to adapt their responses to the pace and scale required. This event will explore some of the thorniest challenges at the ocean-climate nexus while spotlighting emerging and potential ocean-based approaches to accelerate the transition to net zero and real zero, clean up massive amounts of legacy CO₂, repair and restore critical ocean systems, and build global momentum for ocean-climate action.
