Today is #WorldEnvironmentDay and #IUUFishingDay.
IUU Fisheries have a costly footprint on the ocean and destroy the ocean's ability to act as a carbon sink.
@unep.org's World Environment Day 2026 calls on all of us to step in #NowForClimate, and help steer a world already in motion.
Good intentions do not always lead to good conservation outcomes.
A recent article describes how a high-profile humpback whale rescue in Germany sparked criticism from scientists, who argue the operation may have increased the animal's suffering instead of saving it.
Türkiye’s Gökova Bay is a testament to good outcomes from banning destructive bottom trawling and establishing a MPA.
Shifting funding to small-scale, sustainable fisheries is a win-win for taxpayers, the climate, and coastal fishing communities.

#MarinePollution science has come a long way, yet emerging contaminants, complexity of pressures and data gaps mean the field faces many challenges.
The next century of progress will depend as much on international cooperation as on scientific innovation.
Happy #WorldOceanDay! 🌊
This year, @worldoceanday.bsky.social calls for strong #MPAs to bring together the momentum of the #30x30 global goal and align with the recent entry into force of the #HighSeasTreaty.
With only 4 years left to achieve the goal, we need to accelerate progress.
On #WorldOceanDay, the UN launched the Third World Ocean Assessment.
👎 The ocean continues to be under severe and accelerating anthropogenic pressure driven by #ClimateChange, #Pollution and increased human activities.
👍 Stronger governance is improving collective impact.

Ocean acidification affects important ocean species, can alter entire marine ecosystems, and threatens vital ecosystem services.
Recently, it has been found to threaten submerged cultural heritage by accelerating the decay of historic stone materials.

Climate damages to the ocean have been largely ignored in the social cost of carbon.
By including losses to fisheries, corals and mangroves, this study finds that the true cost is almost twice as high as current estimates suggest. ⚠️
Ignoring it would lead to weaker climate policies.
How to transform marine litter into art.
Five pioneering participatory art initiatives in South Europe are turning pollution into collective action, mobilising citizens as active stewards of the sea. ⬇️ @unoceandecade.bsky.social
#PlasticPollution is making climate impacts on coral reefs even worse.
From physical damage due to abandoned fishing gear to altered coral physiology under microplastic exposure, plastics may amplify climate impacts and can alter coral stress responses and reduce recovery. #WorldReefAwarenessDay

Participatory art initiatives are transforming marine litter, hidden pollution and industrial legacies into art, music, architecture and collective action.
For the first time, a study from researchers at Scripps Institution of Oceanography at the University of California San Diego integrates climate-related damages to the ocean into the social cost of ca...
