OCEANS AS AN OPPORTUNITY

Unlocking the full potential of the blue economy

Oceans play a central role in tackling climate change by absorbing 30% of carbon dioxide emissions and 90% of the excess heat trapped by greenhouse gases. The oceans contain many times the amount of carbon in the atmosphere and terrestrial biosphere, and will be the predominant, largest long-term sink for anthropogenic CO2. But could they play an even bigger role in CO2 reduction?

Land-based carbon sequestration schemes are already proving their value – given the fact that oceans cover more than 70% of the Earth’s surface, ocean-based climate technologies have the potential to significantly upscale sequestration efforts. The risks and rewards of widescale deployment of ocean-based negative emissions technologies (NETs) are not yet fully understood and there are obvious gaps in our knowledge of the full role of this type of technology.

Nevertheless, the future blue economy will depend on finding innovative and sustainable solutions that will help preserve the oceans’ ecosystems, and drive clean economic growth in the coming years.

Onshore carbon accounting schemes have been effective at encouraging different industries worldwide to use carbon reduction techniques. However, there is currently no marine carbon credit system in place. A blue carbon credit system will have to be based on a solid carbon accounting model but the reality is that there are still significant knowledge gaps in marine carbon accounting. This is related to the controversial character of developing ocean negative emissions technologies (NETs). As a consequence, CO2 reduction is not yet a major driver for the development of a sustainable blue economy. Applying the onshore GHG protocol for ‘anthropogenic’ carbon accounting in a marine context, and taking into account the best available knowledge on marine carbon accounting, may be the way forward. This deep dive explores the need to develop such a carbon accounting system and what it could look like.

The Earth is dominated by water: about 71% of the Earth’s surface is covered by water and the oceans alone hold about 96.5% of the Earth’s total water. Water also exits in the air as water vapor, in the ice caps and glaciers, in rivers and lakes, in soil and in underground aquifers. The water cycle, or the continuous movement of water between Earth’s surface and the atmosphere, distributes water and regulates global weather patterns and is therefore fundamental to life on the planet. Furthermore, the oceans produce about half of the oxygen in our atmosphere, acts as a sink and reservoir for greenhouse gases, support all biodiversity, and are responsible for the existence of a large variety of ecosystems that are critical to our wellbeing and the health of the planet.

Despite their life-giving role, the health of the oceans is deteriorating at an alarming rate as a result of human activities and climate change. Eutrophication, acidification, warming, deoxygenation, deforestation, overfishing, and pollution are some of the threats to the health of our oceans, which in turn adversely affects, directly or indirectly, biodiversity, the proper functioning of ecosystems and the welfare of billions of people.

The plenary session will feature discussions related to the current state of the oceans, the resilience coastal communities, and the blue economy.

The Earth is dominated by water: about 71% of the Earth’s surface is covered by water and the oceans alone hold about 96.5% of the Earth’s total water. Water also exits in the air as water vapor, in the ice caps and glaciers, in rivers and lakes, in soil and in underground aquifers. The water cycle, or the continuous movement of water between Earth’s surface and the atmosphere, distributes water and regulates global weather patterns and is therefore fundamental to life on the planet. Furthermore, the oceans produce about half of the oxygen in our atmosphere, acts as a sink and reservoir for greenhouse gases, support all biodiversity, and are responsible for the existence of a large variety of ecosystems that are critical to our wellbeing and the health of the planet.

Despite their life-giving role, the health of the oceans is deteriorating at an alarming rate as a result of human activities and climate change. Eutrophication, acidification, warming, deoxygenation, deforestation, overfishing, and pollution are some of the threats to the health of our oceans, which in turn adversely affects, directly or indirectly, biodiversity, the proper functioning of ecosystems and the welfare of billions of people.

The plenary session will feature discussions related to the current state of the oceans, the resilience coastal communities, and the blue economy.

The health of the oceans, and the wellbeing and resilience of coastal communities, needs urgent action to tackle the combined effects of human stressors and climate change. Preserving and restoring marine and coastal ecosystems and biodiversity is not only about conserving nature and mitigating human impacts, it is also vital for our survival.

Earth has already undergone several periods of change but life always found ways to recover and thrive once more.  We are now faced with a new and potentially devastating challenge, the collapse of our oceans. We are still in time to prevent this and avoid another mass extinction, which given the central importance of the oceans to our existence, would probably include humanity. It is time to respond to this challenge by harnessing the power of our collective imaginations and building on our innate ability to collaborate so we can fully restore the health of the oceans, and the ecosystems and biodiversity they support, within the next decade.

This deep dive session will discuss innovative solutions for the preservation and restoration of marine and coastal ecosystems and biodiversity.

The health of the oceans, and the wellbeing and resilience of coastal communities, needs urgent action to tackle the combined effects of human stressors and climate change. Preserving and restoring marine and coastal ecosystems and biodiversity is not only about conserving nature and mitigating human impacts, it is also vital for our survival.

Earth has already undergone several periods of change but life always found ways to recover and thrive once more.  We are now faced with a new and potentially devastating challenge, the collapse of our oceans. We are still in time to prevent this and avoid another mass extinction, which given the central importance of the oceans to our existence, would probably include humanity. It is time to respond to this challenge by harnessing the power of our collective imaginations and building on our innate ability to collaborate so we can fully restore the health of the oceans, and the ecosystems and biodiversity they support, within the next decade.

This deep dive session will discuss innovative solutions for the preservation and restoration of marine and coastal ecosystems and biodiversity.

Carbon sequestration will play a key role in limiting global warming to well below 2°C. Given the fact that oceans cover most of the Earth’s surface, ocean-based climate technologies have the potential to significantly upscale sequestration efforts.

The speakers will discuss how to make use of ocean-based negative emissions technologies (NETs). They will dive into the technical challenges as well as looking at how to balance the risks of accelerating the implementation of ocean NETs and which techniques are already offered by nature (“blue carbon”). This discussion covers policy schemes, societal acceptance of certain risks, and a science-based debate on what is technically feasible today. It focuses on the science-technology-policy nexus and gives special attention to the question of how to accelerate the delivery of effective solutions.
