The ocean tells us about the state of our planet - today and in the future. The EU has now decided to allocate more funds to improve coordination and data collection. The so-called Ocean Eye initiative, with an initial budget of €50 million, aims both to safeguard Europe’s independence and to invite international partners to participate in the vital work of gathering observations above and below the surface.
The Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission of the United Nations Educational, Scientific and Cultural Organisation (UNESCO) has published this year's State of the Ocean Report, which describes the state of the ocean and marine life.
