As the UN Ocean Conference opens in France, a push to turn promises into protection

The UN Ocean Conference kicks off in France this week, with leaders and activists pushing to finally turn all those lofty ocean protection pledges into real, enforceable action. The mood is urgent—everyone agrees the oceans are in trouble, but now it’s time to move beyond talk and start delivering concrete solutions.
Editor’s Note: Oceans are the lifeblood of the planet, but they’re getting hammered by pollution, overfishing, and climate change. This conference is a big deal because it’s not just about making more promises—it’s about holding governments and corporations accountable for the ones they’ve already made. If they actually follow through, it could mean healthier seas and a better shot at fighting climate change. If not, well… we’re running out of time to fix this.
