Ocean crisis demands a new kind of science Scientists must make their voices heard to shape responses to our ocean crisis, write authors from the International Science Council’s Ocean Expert Group.

Pacific Ocean life at risk from noisy deep-sea mining Noise from deep sea mining will bring unpredictable ecological consequences to the Pacific Ocean.

37 countries formed the first ever global coalition to reduce underwater noise pollution at the @UN Ocean Conference this week. Here's why it matters - and why we need more data sharing to protect marine life:

'For our oceans to survive, we need sharks.' Yet 274,000 of them are killed each day. That's 100 million a year. An 'ecocide'. Fascinating conversation with @lewispugh.bsky.social and @ingerandersen.bsky.social at #UNOC3. Another stat: it's 50 years since Jaws.
