OPINION | Healthy planet needs ‘ocean action’ from Asian and Pacific countries [By Armida Salsiah Alisjahbana] READ:
If done right, ocean action will also be climate action but this will require working in concert on a few fronts.
We must also make the invisible visible through ocean data: just three of 10 targets for the goal on life below water are measurable in Asia and the Pacific. Better data is the foundation of better policies and collective action. The Global Ocean Accounts Partnership is an innovative multi-stakeholder collective established to enable countries and other stakeholders to go beyond GDP and to measure and manage progress towards ocean sustainable development.
These actions and others are steps towards ensuring the viability of several of the region’s key ocean-based economic sectors, such as seaborne trade, tourism and fisheries. An estimated 50% to 80% of all life on Earth is found under the ocean surface. Seven of every 10 fish caught around the globe come from Pacific waters.
