Die Hohe See macht zwei Drittel der Erdoberfläche aus und 95 Prozent des bewohnbaren Volumens unseres Planeten. Für diesen Lebensraum und seine Arten gibt es nun erstmals ein UN-Abkommen. "Ein Meilenstein", sagt der Oldenburger Biodiversitätsexperte @hhillebr1 im Gespräch mit Lennart Pyritz, Forschung aktuell im #DLF.
Die Vereinbarungen betreffen Meeresschutzgebiete, Umweltverträglichkeitsprüfungen und Vorteilsausgleiche. Doch der Weg sei noch weit: https://deutschlandfunk.de/einigung-auf-un-abkommen-zum-schutz-der-hohen-see-interview-helmut-hillebrand-dlf-2ec13750-100.html

This week, delegates from 193 member states will begin the final talks at the UN headquarters in New York to conclude negotiations for what scientists have described as a “once in a lifetime” chance to at last protect the high seas.

“There’s a real opportunity to make history with this treaty. It is arguably one of the most important international negotiations that no one has ever heard of.”

UNREAL!!
This extremely rare box jellyfish, Chirodectes, is larger than a soccer ball and this is one of the only videos ever taken.
The oceans are so unimaginably vast, what else is out there?

Protect the high seas. @UN #BBNJ

This is your regular reminder that baby open-ocean octopuses ride on jellyfish like little hats.

This week the United Nations is deciding if we will protect the open ocean. @UN YOU MUST PROTECT THEM! 🥺 https://www.npr.org/2023/02/19/1158215292/un-talks-to-safeguard-the-worlds-marine-biodiversity-will-pick-back-up-this-week
