A historic UN Ocean Treaty has finally been agreed at the United Nations after almost two decades of negotiations. The text will now go through technical editing and translation, before officially being adopted at another session. This Treaty is a monumental win for ocean protection, and an important sign that multilateralism still works in an […]

Climate change is happening. Average global temperatures have increased about 1.2°C since the start of the so-called Industrial Revolution. To many, that seems like an insignificant amount. Would we really suffer if the temperature in our living rooms went up a degree or two? What’s the big deal? What we fail to understand is how […]

An open-source platform model will allow access to any coral researchers; will be transdisciplinary, equitable and inclusive; and will strive for efficiency. Every penny of international funding the coral research platform receives will go directly to its R&D and other projects.

The Gulf of Maine is warming faster than 96% of the world’s oceans — increasing at a rate of 0.09 degrees Fahrenheit per year. These warming temperatures have forced the lobster population to migrate north, seeking colder waters. Seaweed farming has emerged as a viable commercial alternative.

It’s possible to design machines that are anchored to the deep ocean bottom that will “fly” in the current, like kites in the wind. In the future, large-scale commercial-scale deployments composed of many turbines to generate power-plant quantities of ocean electricity could become common.
