Could THIS Save the Ocean?

The world’s oceans are vast, and more than half are outside the jurisdiction of any one country. These so-called ‘high seas’ are vitally important to the environment, biodiversity and global economy, but they face a growing number of threats. The United Nations has introduced a landmark treaty to safeguard them – but what will it do and is it enough? Join us on Wednesday, 25 February at 14:00 UTC for episode 10 of TalkLandscape, where we’ll be exploring the high seas, including: why they’re much more important than you might think - some of the threats they face, from deadly ships to deep sea mining and what’s being done to save them. We’ll be speaking with Mariamalia Rodriguez Chaves, attorney for the Interamerican Association for Environmental Defence Ocean Program, Elissama Menezes, Co-founder and Director at Equal Routes and Wassim Dbouk, a marine and maritime policy research fellow at the Southampton Marine and Maritime Institute, University of Southampton.
