Another win for our ocean! Portugal has created a significant milestone by adopting a 25-year legally-binding moratorium on deep-sea mining in its waters. Protecting our last untouched frontiers is vital for marine life & our planet's health. Hope more nations follow! @deepseaconserve.bsky.social

Delighted to see the Swiss Federal Council approve the #BBNJ Treaty! Even as a landlocked nation, Switzerland recognizes oceans' vital role in health & climate. Hoping Parliament follows through to ratify this landmark agreement! @dbphilanthropy.bsky.social www.admin.ch/gov/fr/accue...

The new issue of @nautil.us dives into the story of Regência Augusta, a coastal village in Brazil where a wave has been granted legal personhood.
