Governments worldwide are failing to keep up with the urgent need for ocean conservation policies. From climate change to overfishing and plastic pollution, we see the effects of delayed action everywhere. In this episode of How to Protect the Ocean, we break down why policies are lagging, the challenges of government decision-making, and how we can push for transformative change.

We’ll discuss:

✅ Why policy language is confusing and how to decode it

✅ The importance of science-driven decision-making

✅ How biodiversity, climate change, and pollution are interconnected

✅ The role of nature-based solutions and urban green spaces

✅ Why supporting Indigenous knowledge is key to sustainable policies

We need to demand that our governments listen to experts and act NOW before it’s too late. Watch until the end to learn how YOU can take action!
