William warns ocean life 'diminishing before our eyes'
Prince William warns about the diminishing state of ocean life, calling for ambitious global, national, and local action to protect the oceans during an address in Monaco. The prince emphasized the crucial role healthy oceans play in providing oxygen, regulating climate, and feeding billions of people, as rising temperatures, pollution, and overfishing pose significant threats. The forum precedes the UN Ocean Conference in Nice, focusing on the importance of oceans in areas such as trade, food security, and sustainable energy, with attendees including environmentalists, scientists, and investors interested in funding ocean protection projects.
