BREAKING: A new report warns global coral cover is now well below normal levels and facing IRREVERSIBLE decline as fossil fuel heating bakes our seas.
END the fossil fuel era before the damage becomes permanent.

Oceans are full of incredible creatures: their colours, behaviours and importance to the marine ecosystem are unquestionable.
Take some time to appreciate these amazing pictures by finalists of the Ocean Photographer of the Year 2026 💙
Take a moment. Appreciate. And sign our petition calling for ocean protection.

Across the world, oceans are being pushed to the brink by pollution, destructive industrial fishing and overfishing, the looming threat of deep sea mining and fossil-fuelled climate change.
Tell governments to act swiftly and turn the Global Ocean Treaty into action because the ocean can’t wait.

RECORD OCEAN HEAT: On 21 August, global sea-surface temperatures hit their hottest day on record, fuelled by El Niño and the climate crisis.
Big polluters must STOP heating and acidifying our living ocean for profit.

🚨 OCEAN HEAT: We are entering uncharted territory.
Record-breaking ocean temperatures are pushing ecosystems closer to dangerous tipping points. Fossil fuel corporations and big polluters are gambling with a liveable planet for profit.

🚨 OCEAN HEAT: July saw the world’s oceans reach their HOTTEST TEMPERATURES ON RECORD.
Hotter seas mean rising waters, dying coral reefs, collapsing kelp forests and fisheries under threat. How much more damage will it take before politicians STOP letting Big Oil cook our planet for profit?

"The message from the Constitutional Court today is clear: people and their constitutional rights come before corporate profits.”
"This is a win not just for us as Indigenous People, but also for the environment and the planet. Having courts that listen to Environmental Defenders promotes wellbeing for all of us.”

Scientists say the world’s seas were the hottest last month than any other July on record 🤯
Hotter oceans mean more marine heatwaves, coral bleaching, rising seas, stronger storms and hurricanes while marine life is being pushed out of the habitats it depends on.
It’s time to build strong people‑power movements that are impossible to ignore, to force governments to act at the scale the science demands!

Protecting the ocean also means protecting the right of coastal communities to keep their culture alive and pass their stories on.

The largest conservation areas in the US are in the Pacific Ocean. Yet protections and funding for these areas are being rolled back.
Our survival is at stake. Governments and big polluters are pushing us deeper into crisis instead of changing course.
Protect the oceans. Create vast ocean sanctuaries.

Deep sea mining is a looming catastrophe for oceans and marine life, a new front in extractivist abuse that must be STOPPED before it starts.
This is pure corporate greed carving up the seabed and gambling with ecosystems we barely understand.

The ocean isn’t just overheating, it’s LOSING ITS BREATH.
Scientists say global waters have already lost around 2% of their oxygen, pushing marine life towards an “unsafe space” with potentially irreversible impacts.
Protect the oceans, stop new oil and gas.

World leaders say they'll protect nature. But they still back the industries destroying it🤯
Indigenous Peoples and coastal communities have protected the ocean for generations. It's time governments put them first.
🌊 Fund local communities directly
🐠 Protect fragile marine ecosystems
✊ Respect the rights and food security of Indigenous Peoples and coastal communities -
GOOD NEWS: Blue and fin whale sightings off Southern Africa have increased in recent years, hinting that these giants may be slowly recovering after being virtually wiped out by 20th‑century whaling.
Nature heals when we give it the chance ❤️🩹

Big polluters and fossil fuel companies are collapsing our planetary life support systems.

Shower thoughts from Dr. Paco Gardenas, sponge expert from @uppsalauniversity 🧽🚿
Deep sea mining corporations are on their way to destroy ocean habitats that haven’t even been discovered yet.
We can stop this destructive industry before it begins. Join us at

Incredible stuff here from Greenpeace.
This is all the evidence needed.
Bottom trawling HAS to stop.

Embarrassing. New Zealand is pushing to allow for more coral destruction on the high seas, out of step with other countries who are backing greater ocean protection.
NZ Govt you know how to fix this. Stop bottom trawling in High Seas of the South Pacific.

Great news from @[email protected] as New Zealand REJECTS deep sea mining in the incredible Taranaki region!
Aotearoa said no to ecosystem destruction - who's next? 🌏💚

Imagine a future where parts of the sea are safe zones, with no destructive fishing, no harm, just space for marine life to rest, recover, and thrive💙
And it’s possible — because the Global Ocean Treaty will soon be coming into force, giving governments the power to make this future real 🌊
