Let's be honest, we all cried. Many couldn't be in the room when it happened but on planes, trains, with suitcases, in stations and reaching homes, all the delegates, experts & civil society people were united, wherever we were. #HighSeas@highseasallianctheguardian.com/world/video/…
World leaders will gather soon to decide on the #HighSeas future.
The @HighSeasAlliance Critters 🐙🐢🪸need your help to make sure the opportunity to turn the tide on ocean degradation is seized.

We need Canada 🇨🇦 @IMPAC5Canada host, to be an ocean champion and global leader.
Commitments needed are outlined in the @SeaBlueCanada Commitments Board which will be updated during #IMPAC5 as and when governments make their pledges. Follow the progress: seabluecanada.org/commitment…
In June, @Marine_CoLAB launched a toolkit distilling lessons from its six years of cross-sector collaboration, and how using values and systems-based approaches can help the marine sector to facilitate change.
