On track to disburse > €20m of #OceanOptimism in 2026. Support to @unbiodiversity.bsky.social 🌊 #30x30 funded by 🇩🇪 @bmz.de 🇳🇴 @norad.no 🇸🇪 @swedishmfa.bsky.social 🇫🇷 @afd-france.bsky.social 🇮🇪 @irishaid.bsky.social & @greenclimate.fund
We welcome Canada's new Nature Strategy – a positive step in what we hope will be an ambitious agenda to meet our #30x30 goals, and protect and restore the nature that is core to our identity as Canadians and underpins much of our economy. Read our full reaction: wcel.org/media-releas... #cdnpoli
Yesterday in Hamburg: Afterwork talk on economy, #SDG14 and #30x30. #OceanOptimism @blueactionfund.org
The BC NDP government seems to be hellbent on shredding its credibility on the environment.

Yet, to reach #30x30 ocean target, we need to:
🌊 add daily 42,234 km² of new MPAs (roughly the size of Denmark 🇩🇰)
🌊 Manage all these #MPAs effectively & equitably.
Rolling up our sleeves at @blueactionfund.org to do our little contribution...
10% milestone reached 🎉🥳: In the last year, #MPAs coverage increased by around 1% to 9.75%. With most recent designations in 🇨🇱 & 🇧🇷, we should have surpassed the 10% Milestone (& thus reached former Aichi Target) 🕺💃. #OceanOptimism #30x30 #COP17
🥳🎉3 new #MPAs in 🇩🇪.

3 new MPAs in 🇩🇪 Baltic Sea. Well done Minister Goldschmidt

Great exchange yesterday on EbA in Berlin. We showcased how @blueactionfund.org investments are delivering for climate action as part of #30x30. Thanks for strong inputs from @oceanweigand.bsky.social, @rare.org, @wwf.de, @bmz.de, and others.

Looking forward to tomorrow’s event on #EbA in Berlin 🇩🇪.
Excited for discussions on the role of oceans & coasts in climate action and to see @oceanweigand.bsky.social presenting @blueactionfund.org's work on financing coastal & marine conservation in support of #30x30 🌊
Co-organised with ODK & ZUG.
BC must protect at least 30% of land and waters by 2030. Act now: implement Old Growth Review, pass the Biodiversity & Ecosystem Health Framework, & protect such valuable sites as the Argenta Face, Rainbow–Jordan & Fairy Creek. Contact your MLA, sign petitions, share. #ProtectBC #30x30 #Conservation
Cerbère-Banyuls just passed its 5-year Blue Parks review.
Inside the reserve, fish are larger, biomass is higher, and protection is actively enforced with 1,100+ hours of monitoring each year.
Proof that effective ocean protection is built to last.

UICN says 30% for Nature per 2030. #30x30
England is aiming at 7% and struggles with this goal:

Yet still better than nothing.
“If every country could do what Chile has, the world would be able to effectively protect far more than 30% of the ocean by 2030.”
Some very exciting #goodNews for the ocean coming form Chile, one of the leading countries in marine protection these days.
Dewfinitely a challenge for every […]

Pure #OceanOptimism: 🇨🇱 granted full protection to 360,000km² of 🌊 around Juan Fernández & Nazca-Desventuradas marine parks, creating one of the world’s largest fully MPA & surpassing 50% ocean protection. #30x30

A historic milestone for #OceanConservation!
Chile has protected 360,000 km² of water around the Juan Fernández Archipelago, creating the world’s 3rd largest fully protected marine area. Chile now protects >50% of its EEZ, surpassing #30x30 targets. 🌊
