♻️In Tanmen, Qionghai, fishermen harvest seaweed by boat, dry it on the beach, and process it into feed for sea cucumbers and urchins. This simple cycle reduces ocean nutrient overload while creating new income. Protecting the sea while earning a living — that's Qionghai's way!

🪸 🐠 ‼️ Below the ocean's surface, the Coral Triangle holds the world’s richest marine life. LNG carrier traffic happening above is putting it at risk. Not every part of the Coral Triangle is covered in coral. But every part is connected. To mark Coral Triangle Day, SFOC dove into Philippine waters off the coast in Bohol to see what is at stake from LNG shipping traffic in the region. As LNG expansion accelerates, the ships enabling it are slipping through the cracks. LNG carriers are often excluded from environmental impact assessments, treated as “mobile” and outside project boundaries. In reality, these vessels follow fixed routes, returning again and again. Each journey adds underwater noise, emissions, and cumulative stress to marine ecosystems. 🇯🇵🇰🇷Japanese shipowners, backed by Japanese private financiers, Korean financiers and shipbuilders, are scaling up this fleet without sufficient safeguards. The time to act is now: 🔹Include LNG shipping across the full project lifecycle in environmental impact assessments, in line with OECD and international standards 🔹Assess cumulative impacts along LNG shipping routes, including ports, marine protected areas, and coastal communities 🔹Strengthen protections in biodiversity hotspots through routing measures, speed limits, and exclusion zones 🔹Require financiers to integrate marine biodiversity risks into due diligence and investment decisions 🪸 🐠 The Coral Triangle holds 76% of the world’s coral species and supports millions of lives. What we cannot see is still being impacted. Protecting the Coral Triangle means acting across the entire LNG value chain. 🔗 Read SFOC’s blog on the industry players behind LNGC expansion: forourclimate.org/insights/1… 🔗 Explore SFOC's report on LNG carrier impacts: forourclimate.org/research/6… #TogetherForTheCoralTriangle #CoralTriangle #CoralTriangleDay #OceanProtection #Biodiversity #EnergyFinance #SFOC @Stand.earth @SkyTruth

Most of us know our oceans are struggling. What we don’t realise is where the real damage comes from. Plastic bags and bottles matter of course they do. Yet the largest source of plastic pollution in our seas is often ghost gear: lost or abandoned fishing nets, ropes and lines that keep drifting for years. They trap turtles, dolphins, seals and seabirds. They scrape coral. They break down into micro-plastics that enter the entire food chain - including ours. And here’s the part worth knowing: The ocean can recover. It’s done it for millions of years. It simply can’t recover while we keep feeding it materials that outlast entire generations. Every organic cotton purchase avoids synthetic fibres entering the water. Every reuse choice stops another piece of plastic from starting that 400-year journey. Every conversation spreads awareness most people never hear. Cleaner oceans don’t start at the shore. They start with the habits we repeat. #OceanProtection #CleanSeas #StopOceanPlastic #ProtectOurOceans #SustainableLiving

🌊 On Coral Triangle Day, we celebrate ocean life. But LNG shipping is putting it at risk. The Coral Triangle holds 76% of the world’s coral species and supports 360 million people. But fossil gas expansion is accelerating across the region, with dozens of new LNG terminals planned. 🇰🇷🇯🇵 financiers and industry players are key drivers behind the expanding global LNG carrier fleet. As was raised in a recent OECD complaint to Korean public financiers, this growth comes with insufficient assessment of biodiversity, climate, and community impacts. Thousands of LNGC journeys mean more underwater noise, more emissions, and more stress on fragile marine ecosystems far from where decisions are made. SFOC research shows how this system drives harm across borders while accountability lags behind. 🪸Protecting the Coral Triangle means holding the entire LNG value chain responsible. 🔗 Read SFOC's blog: forourclimate.org/insights/1… 🔗 Delve deeper into the impacts of LNG Carriers in our report: forourclimate.org/research/6… 🔗 Follow 'Sama-Sama: Together for the Coral Triangle' to stay in the loop: linkedin.com/company/samasam… #TogetherForTheCoralTriangle #CoralTriangle #CoralTriangleDay #OceanProtection #Biodiversity #EnergyFinance #SFOC @standearth @SkyTruth

"Il problema non è la plastica. È progettare materiali ignorando dove finiranno." 8 giugno 2026, nella Giornata Mondiale degli Oceani, penso che il modo migliore per celebrare questa ricorrenza sia continuare a lavorare sulle soluzioni. Oggi tutti celebrano gli oceani. Domani molti torneranno a parlare di sostenibilità mentre continuano a immettere nell'ambiente milioni di tonnellate di materiali progettati per durare secoli. Io continuo a credere che l'innovazione debba servire a risolvere problemi reali. Per questo, dopo tanti anni, resto impegnato sul fronte dei PHA: materiali ottenuti da fonti rinnovabili e biodegradabili anche in ambiente marino, una tecnologia sulla quale abbiamo investito ricerca, capitale e visione quando quasi nessuno ne parlava. La storia di Bio-on è stata raccontata in molti modi. Ma i fatti restano: l'inquinamento da plastica negli oceani è ancora qui, e la necessità di alternative sostenibili è oggi più evidente di allora. Gli oceani non hanno bisogno di slogan. Hanno bisogno di scienza, industria e coraggio. E su questo continuerò a lavorare. astorri.eu #WorldOceansDay #PHA #BioOn #BlueEconomy #OceanProtection #Bioplastics Video ONU World Oceans Day 2026: unworldoceansday.org/?utm_so… World Ocean Day Official Site: worldoceanday.org/?utm_sourc…
