ICYMI: 🐙
Over the weekend the world has reached a significant milestone for ocean protection:
60 countries have ratified the #GlobalOceanTreaty, triggering its entry into force and creating the first ever legal framework for protection of the high seas! 🌊
The next step is using it to create global ocean sanctuaries, where the ocean will have an opportunity to heal, replenish and thrive. 🐳
This is a massive win for the ocean, biodiversity, climate and multilateralism!
