Marine turtles often swim across borders and through international waters, while facing multiple threats such as bycatch, poaching and climate change. By protecting blue corridors, we can help safeguard these species and ocean health.

From new MPAs to progress on the #HighSeasTreaty, #UNOC3 delivered vital momentum for ocean conservation. But unless we tackle the #climatecrisis, marine ecosystems will continue to unravel. The ocean is sending distress signals—we must act before they are irreversible.

Countries have committed to put a stop to shark and ray extinction at #UNOC3, with a new coalition launched to better collaborate on ending overfishing and habitat loss threatening marine life. #SaveOurSeas @iucnshark.bsky.social @sscmarine.bsky.social wwf.panda.org/wwf_news/pre...
🌱 WWF's work in SWIO region is a UNEP World Restoration Flagship!
"Biodiversity protection, climate action, and economic development are deeply connected. To deliver our restoration goals, our ambition must be as big as the ocean we must protect.” #GenerationRestoration

More than 90 countries have issued a "wake up call" on #PlasticPollution at #UNOC3. Backed by France - the statement declares the critical need for reaching consensus on a legally binding global plastics pollution treaty in August. Get WWF's reaction: ©Getty/Jamie Lamb wwf.panda.org/wwf_news/pre...
"If we protect the ocean, it can help us in the fight against climate change. Seagrass beds, whales, healthy fisheries, the deep-sea, all help capture carbon," says WWF's Jessica Battle. "Action needs to start now, and we need money behind these pledges." #UNOC news.cgtn.com/news/2025-06...
WWF's Ocean Practice Leader Pepe Clarke talks about #UNOC3 as the point when we decide to turn things around for our #ocean.

Big news for the #HighSeas from #UNOC3. "Once the treaty enters into force, it will enable the establishment of networks of MPAs, and ensure that no new activity with significant impact on marine life can go ahead without an impact assessment."

The movement to press pause on #DeepSeaMining is growing fast! Marshall Islands join Slovenia, Cyprus and Latvia here at #UNOC3 saying #DefendTheDeep.

"It’s time for straight talk: Too many well-intentioned commitments are going unfulfilled. It’s time to break the bottlenecks, strengthen and restore resolve, and achieve what’s been promised." @wwf.panda.org Director General Kirsten Schuijt at #UNOC3 #TeamOcean

New paper highlights the promise of innovative and blended finance mechanisms, including blue bonds, guarantees, and debt-for-nature swaps. Evidence suggests that every $1 invested in #ocean solutions could yield at least $5 in global benefits by 2050. #BEFF

⚠️ Seagrass is sinking under pressure. Literally.
New WWF data shows recreational boats are wrecking the Mediterranean meadows.
💔 Down goes biodiversity, up goes emissions.
solutions? anchor-smart tech + stronger rules.

But our life-giving ocean is in crisis. We’ve got to #SaveOurOcean now & restore ocean health – before it’s too late. Are you with us?
#UNOC3 #TeamOcean
Did you know that our amazing ocean supplies more than half the oxygen on Earth, and provides food and livelihoods for billions of people worldwide? #WorldOceanDay #TeamOcean
As world leaders gather for the Blue Economy and Finance Forum #BEFF and #UNOC3, The Ocean Agenda unpacks the findings of the newly launched Ocean Protection Gap Report and the message is clear: we must bridge a considerable gap to achieve 30% of the ocean by 2030. for-the-ocean.org/ocean-protec...
🐟 Down to the final 10!
The @wto.org deal to curb harmful fisheries subsidies is closer than ever. Nicaragua just ratified—who’s next?
Let’s get this done before #UNOC3!

Investing in #ocean protection and resilience is essential to secure sustainable economies, help mitigate and adapt to #climatechange and boost #biodiversity. This won’t happen on its own. We need to change our game plan if we’re going to meet our 2030 goals. #UNOC3

At #UNOC3, we are marching for the deep sea! 🌊
👀 All eyes are on Nice this June. On June 7, we’ll be marching to call on leaders to take bold, urgent, and concrete steps to protect the ocean – now!

We have the agreements and solutions we need for a living #ocean, now we need the execution. With only 5 years to go, it’s essential that #UNOC3 charts a course to deliver the 2030 commitments that countries & businesses signed up to. - Kirsten Schuijt, @wwf.panda.org

Working together, #TeamOcean can secure effective and collaborative ocean governance to support ocean health, peace and stability.
#UNOC3
wwf.panda.org/discover/oce...
The best defense against the worst effects of #climatechange is an aggressive offense – a rapid phase out of fossil fuels. But we need a defensive gameplan as well – strategies to mitigate harm and adapt to changes already being felt in the ocean and by communities.
wwf.panda.org/discover/oce...
Money is a game changer. We must reform policies and mobilize finance to support an equitable and #SustainableBlueEconomy, including curbing harmful subsidies and redirecting of trillions of dollars of mainstream finance.
wwf.panda.org/discover/oce...
Let's play fair. For decades, the rules governing fisheries have favored the bigger and faster, putting the smaller and slower at a disadvantage. We must accelerate science-based fisheries management, bycatch mitigation, data collection, transparency and traceability.
wwf.panda.org/discover/oce...
In the fight for a living #ocean, no one’s handing out participation trophies – we have to play to win. That means rapidly expanding and effectively managing ecologically representative networks of MPAs to rebuild species populations and restore ecosystem health. wwf.panda.org/discover/oce...

Sometimes we need art to communicate the science of #ClimateChange. The beautiful film #InHotWater helps visualize the threat of marine heatwaves. #SaveOurOcean

BREAKING🚨: Luxembourg becomes the 33rd country calling for a moratorium on #DeepSeaMining.
With science, markets, and public opinion against it, the message is clear: DSM is unwanted, unnecessary, and unacceptable.
