- About:听The Ocean sustains life on Earth. Vital for its climate services, social-cultural-economic benefits and its coastal and marine biodiversity, the Ocean connects us all. Despite growing momentum to build a sustainable blue economy, Sustainable Development Goal 14 - Life under Water, remains the most underfunded of all SDGs. As COP28 kickstarts on 30 November, this high-level event will take stock of efforts to turn the tide for the Ocean-Climate nexus and explore innovative ways to build on this intrinsic relationship to safeguard multilateralism, from governance to finance.

Opportunities, tools and challenges towards an inclusive and equitable approach for local & regional adaptation to a rapidly changing ocean听
- By: Plymouth Marine Laboratory 听
- Time: 11:15-12:30听听
- Location: Commonwealth Pavilion
- Event type: Panel discussion
- Live stream:听
- About:听There is an urgent need for tools in support of adapting to climate change impacts of a rapidly changing ocean. At the same time, some technical solutions / innovations being proposed are not appropriate for developing / least developed countries (many of whom are Commonwealth Partners) as they require large financial resources / significant infrastructure investment. It is therefore imperative to prioritise the development and mobilisation of appropriate tools that can be rolled out quickly and efficiently at a global scale in a way that promotes equitability and inclusivity without causing unintended environmental consequences. This session will therefore discuss amongst panel members but also with the audience the requirements, opportunities and possible barriers for implementing equitable and accessible ocean adaption solutions specifically for countries with minimal financial resource and high levels of marine biodiversity.

- highlight recent investments from the US on novel CDR research, especially marine CDR (mCDR), including research on impacts to ecosystems and social systems,
- outline current mCDR initiatives and priorities in the US and the global south, and
- call to other governments to join the U.S. in responsible investments for international mCDR research development and demonstration to understand the feasibility of mCDR as a climate solution.

This event will showcase how NbS can build the resilience of a regenerative blue economy that directly benefits coastal communities and delivers conservation outcomes. Questions to be addressed include: How can NbS contribute to the GBW and build climate resilience in the WIO? How can ecosystems provide vital adaptation services for the blue economy? How can we measure the impact of NbS against climate, nature and the economy? How can we ensure regenerative blue economies work for women and youth? Multiple voices, including women, youth, local governments, financers and implementors will share their experiences to spearhead action in the WIO region.

A roadmap for nature based solutions in our oceans, achieving the Kelp Forest Challenge; protecting and restoring 4 million hectares of kelp forests by 2040
- By:听香港六合彩开奖结果现场直播
- Time: 13:15-14:15
- Location: , Blue Zone
- Event type: Moderated presentations and panel discussion
- Live stream:听
- About:听Essential for healthy oceans, coastal communities, fisheries, economies, and marine biodiversity from the subtropics to the polar regions, kelp forests are an integral and threatened ocean ecosystem. Their benefits are connected to over 740 million people who live beside a kelp forest, and their economic impact is valued at least 500 billion USD per year. Despite the ever-growing and increasingly prominent climate threats to the ocean鈥檚 largest biological ecosystem and the loss of their associated benefits, kelp forest conservation has lagged behind conservation efforts in other terrestrial and marine environments.
The Kelp Forest Challenge aims to address this disparity and accelerate investment and action for an untapped nature based solution by promoting the restoration and protection of 4 million hectares of kelp forests, globally, by 2040. This roadmap is a detailed strategy for how businesses, governments, communities, universities, content creators, and anyone else with an interest can help meet the Kelp Forest Challenge. To save our kelp forests, we will need substantial investment, collaboration, and innovation across different sectors, countries, and philosophies; equitable and large-scale success for kelp forests will only be achieved by bringing together the diversity of solutions outlined here and creating a sustainable ocean for everyone.
