Our Ocean Conference official opening ceremony underway #OOC10 Korea hosts a grand opening ceremony and announced ambitious ocean sustainability actions.
April 29, 2025 at 1:00 AM
In the exhibition area of #OOC10 I found an image of a sea mount on display from a Korean ocean survey company. Did I ever mention that at @oceanquest.bsky.social we love sea mounts?

John Kerry who initiated the OurOcean conference series gave some inspiring remarks but also clear words on Climate Action and Ocean Protection. Great way to start my day #OOC10 🌊

How can we encourage more financial engagement in sustainable ocean activities. Blue Finance remains a challenge to operate a scale. 🌊

The new German government has published it’s future work program. Excited to read that:
„Germany supports with its partners a moratorium on Deep Sea Mining and supports Deep Sea Research.“

I could have not asked for more alignment with our @oceanquest.bsky.social ambitions. 🌊
