DEFINITION

It is a pact that seeks to strengthen governance for the comprehensive administration of the oceans, with the harmonization of territorial and marine planning and management instruments.

problem

Underwater life is constantly threatened: excess paving on the coast, the dumping of nutrients derived from agriculture into the ocean or inadequate wastewater treatment are some of the main causes of the destruction of this habitat.

The consequences caused by contaminated water are:

consequences

Destruction of biodiversity

Shortage of drinking water

Food chain pollution

Diseases

Infant mortality

Six of the most polluting countries are the United States, China, Japan, Canada, the United Kingdom and Korea, which could be among the most affected, along with others from cold latitudes such as Iceland, Norway or Denmark, where the impact of acidification will predictably be higher.

Contaminant removal technologies

Contaminant removal technologies

Restoration of marine ecosystems

Speak in education and awareness

Political actions and international agreements

These are some of the places where they help

COSTA RICA

Costa Rica has earned recognition for its environmental policies, particularly its efforts to reduce plastic pollution. The country has implemented bans on single-use plastics and is committed to becoming carbon-neutral by 2050. The country has also focused on protecting marine ecosystems, with many marine protected areas in place.

Australia

Both countries are taking significant steps to tackle marine pollution, including bans on single-use plastics, initiatives to protect coral reefs, and investment in clean-up technologies. Australia has focused on the Great Barrier Reef restoration, and New Zealand has taken steps to reduce plastic waste through regulatory measures and promoting sustainability.

Japan

Japan has long had a strong waste management and recycling culture. The country is increasingly focusing on addressing plastic pollution through initiatives like improving waste segregation and using advanced technologies to clean the ocean. Japan has also taken part in international collaborations to address marine pollution, such as in the Asia-Pacific region.

Personal proposal for a solution

We think that in order to solve ocean pollution we can reduce plastics and start recycling, we can also not throw garbage into the sea and thus we can improve the world.
