The focus was clear: climate action, transitioning to cleaner energy, advancing Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) and preparing for COP28 (the 2023 United Nations Climate Change Conference). Our team from Ocean Conservancy was right in the mix, meeting with governments and engaging in more than 30 events in just five days.

Clean ocean energy solutions are critical to reducing emissions and averting the climate crisis. Climate change is the single greatest threat our ocean faces. It puts the wildlife and communities that depend on the ocean at risk through impacts like ocean acidification, sea level rise and temperature changes.
