🌊On #WorldOceansDay, take a minute to think about our ocean... We can all act to #SaveOurOcean 👇🏻

The ocean is the greatest ally in our efforts to address the climate crisis, generating 50% of the oxygen we need & absorbing 25% of all carbon dioxide emissions. Wednesday's #WorldOceansDay is a reminder of the urgency to #SaveOurOcean. unworldoceansday.org

😍 Meet Our New Ocean Decade Actions 🌊 On this #UNWorldOceansDay, join us in celebrating the 9 projects endorsed through a co-branded call with Fisheries & Oceans Canada (DFO). Read more 👉 bit.ly/39hLscL #WorldOceansDay #OceanDecade #GlobalGoals @FishOceansCAN

Ahead of #BiodiversityDay, we consider the importance of naming: #biodiversity – the variability among living organisms – is a critical part of but not a synonym for #nature, as TNFD's proposed definitions make clear. Learn more about TNFD's definitions: framework.tnfd.global
