Nature's Baton symbolises our connectivity - from Monaco to Moorea, from congress to conference, from big fish to prochlorococcus. ⁦Relay4Nature⁩ will take the baton on from here in Marseille to COP26 in Glasgow. Merci IUCN et la belle France.

It's done! UNEA adopts the resolution to establish an intergovernmental negotiating committee to establish a binding international treaty to end plastic pollution. Now the hard work starts, but today Member States, the representatives of humanity, have done the right thing.⁦

Towards a Universal Declaration of Ocean Rights - a natural and ambitious next step to recognise the importance and intrinsic value of our one Ocean 🌊 We will need the resilience and team spirit embodied by the Ocean Race to succeed - let's do this 💪⛵

Congrats to HE Abdulla Shahid, President UN General Assembly for this week's High-Level Debate "Moment for Nature", striving for cohesion among global environmental work streams to keep 1.5 degrees alive. Nature's Baton supports this ambition & now carries a message from the PGA.

The concept of having rights for the Ocean that is based on the idea of human rights is a fairly new one, but there is an ongoing campaign or movement towards a universal declaration of Ocean Rights. podbean.com/ew/pb-mj446-15…

Carried across land and sea to Athens today, Nature’s Baton brings to the Our Ocean Conference its message of connectivity. A universal commitment from around the world is required if we are going to succeed in reversing the decline in the ocean’s health. ⁦The Ocean Race⁩
