Rebuilding marine biodiversity
About this event
02 June 2020 from 16:30 until 18:00
This webinar builds on a paper published in April, 2020, in Nature to discuss solutions for rebuilding marine life. Sustainable Development Goal N°14 aims to “conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources”. Achieving this goal involves restoring the life support systems that provide the immense benefits of a healthy ocean….
Rebuilding marine life provides an important illustration of what can be done to face environmental change, as it represents a doable “Grand Challenge” for humanity, an ethical obligation, and a smart economic objective to achieve a sustainable future.
