Countries which govern half the world's territorial oceans have yet to integrate ocean-focused solutions into their nationally determined contributions, or NDCs, due for an update by February 2025.
Given their outsized economic role, strengthening the resilience of coastal communities is not just a regional or national priority but a global imperative.
At best, targeted coral interventions – which may not always return reefs to a healthy state – risk squandering money, time and trust in science. At worst, they are a dangerous distraction from the need for drastic emissions reduction.
In Southeast Asia, over 50 per cent of shark species are threatened with extinction. Drastic interventions are warranted, but all hope is not lost. Regional efforts are underway to save these predators that are vital for the health of Southeast Asia’s marine ecosystems.
