The Global Ocean Treaty needs 60 countries to sign it into Law by 2025.

Act now to make sure Canada is one of them!

 

Canada committed to protecting 30% of the global oceans by 2030. In March, a Global Ocean Treaty was agreed that can pave the way for a network of ocean sanctuaries in the global oceans. But the work isn’t done yet: to turn handshakes into conservation action, we need at least 60 countries to sign the Treaty into law.

 

Our oceans are teetering on the brink of collapse. A Global Ocean Treaty signed into law can help because it:

 

- enables global governments to create protected areas in the oceans beyond the individual control of any one country;

- prevents harmful exploitation and promotes the recovery and resilience of marine life and ecosystems;

- promotes improved governance of the world's oceans; and, provides a more equitable approach to ocean management.

Canada must act urgently to ratify the Treaty to secure 30x30 (30% of the oceans protected by sanctuaries by 2030) and a brighter future for our blue planet.
