Our planet is undergoing significant changes due to climate disruption, with especially severe impacts on the ocean. Most climate action today rightly focuses on reducing greenhouse gas emissions. Unfortunately, these efforts are necessary, but not sufficient to meet global climate targets. The Sixth Assessment Report of the Intergovernmental Panel on […]
