The High Level Panel for a Sustainable Ocean Economy (Ocean Panel) invites you to a discussion featuring U.S. Senator Sheldon Whitehouse, Norway’s Ambassador to the United States Anniken Ramberg Krutnes, Vidar Helgesen, Dr. Jane Lubchenco, Andrew Steer, and other experts on how to achieve a healthy and prosperous ocean, in 2021 and beyond.In December, the 14 countries that make up the Ocean Panel announced their commitment to sustainably manage 100% of their national waters by 2025. The Ocean Panel urged leaders of coastal and ocean states across the globe – including the United States – to join in committing to this 100% for their own marine waters by 2030.This webinar is the U.S. launch of the Ocean Panel’s policy agenda, Transformations for a Sustainable Ocean Economy: A Vision for Protection, Production and Prosperity, and a new report commissioned by the Ocean Panel that finds we do not have to choose between ocean protection and production – we can do both. The speakers will also explore how to convert the Ocean Panel’s recommendations into action. Tags ocean economy Share Share on Facebook Share on Twitter LinkedIn Add this Repost 1 like 0 comments
