    Current efforts to protect marine environments, fisheries, and invest in ocean science are not meeting the urgent need to safeguard the oceans. The reduction in human activity from COVID-19 provides an opportunity for oceans to recuperate and chart a sustainable recovery that ensures livelihoods in harmony with nature for decades. Ocean heat is at record levels causing marine heatwaves that threaten ecosystems and kill coral reefs worldwide. Unless managed carefully, tourism can threaten the natural resources, local culture and industry that it depends on.

    WHY (slide 6)

    Current efforts to protect key marine environments and small-scale fisheries, and tinvest
    in ocean science are not yet meeting the urgent need to safeguard this vast, yet fragile, resource.
    The drastic reduction in human activity brought about by the COVID-19 crisis, while rooted in
    tragedy, is a chance for oceans to recuperate. It is also an opportunity to chart a sustainable
    recovery path that will ensure livelihoods for decades to come in harmony with the natural
    environment.

    SO WHATS THE PROBLEM (SLIDE 7)

    Ocean heat is at record levels, causing widespread marine heatwaves, threatening its rich
    ecosystems and killing coral reefs around the world.

    SO WHATS THE PROBLEM (SLIDE 8)

    Unless carefully managed, tourism can pose a major threat to the natural resources on which it
    depends, and to local culture and industry.
