Urgent action is needed 4 we are to keep our planet—and our oceans—safe and habitable. This requires 5 (ambitious) targets to reduce our carbon emissions and to shift our energy system away from polluting fossil fuels towards 100% renewable energies.

Change is also needed in international cooperation around 6 our oceans are protected.

Now is the time for Britain 10 (turn) political will into decisive action by leading the way with the forging of a new global ocean treaty. The prime minister’s direct involvement could make the difference between a watered- down agreement or a powerful one.
