🌊The ocean is far more than a highway for global trade. It regulates our climate, sustains biodiversity and supports livelihoods.
🇪🇺🇨🇳 The EU and China have a shared responsibility to advance the decarbonisation of shipping and protect the ocean through cooperation, science and multilateral action.

🚢 The EU ETS now puts a price on shipping emissions. But are the revenues helping finance maritime decarbonisation?
Our new policy brief by Camila Berreddad examines how they are used across the EU and what can be learned from France. 📖 Full paper: www.europejacquesdelors.eu/publications...

🌡️ The heatwave in Europe calls for a much faster transition
As Europe warms more than twice as fast as the global average, climate pressure is reshaping the way we think about resilience, security and sustainability.

🌊🛡️ Europe’s security increasingly depends on the sea.
75% of the EU’s external trade moves by sea, while 99% of global data flows pass through submarine cables. But Europe’s maritime space is becoming more vulnerable.

Why does the Strait of Hormuz matter for Europe’s #fertiliser security?
Because disruptions there expose a deeper weakness in Europe’s agri-food system: its dependence on imported, fossil-fuel-based fertilisers.

Our latest #Op-Ed on #TheParliament: 🌊 Europe has an Ocean Pact. Now it needs the budget to match.
The EU #OceanPact sets out a more ambitious vision for ocean governance. The real test now is whether the next EU budget will give that vision the means to succeed.

10 years after the Paris Agreement, Europe leads in green finance.
But €500bn/year is still not enough to meet climate goals.
Geopolitics + fossil fuel dependency make acceleration urgent.

At the @imohq.bsky.social International Maritime Organization MEPC 84 is a real stress test for the Net-Zero Framework. After years of negotiations, the biggest risk isn’t rejection, it’s delay and dilution.
So the question is: will countries stick to their commitments, or quietly let them fade?

📢 New blog post - From Source to Sea: Rethinking Europe’s approach to water pollution 🌊
Nutrient pollution remains a major threat to Europe’s waters, with 1/3 of agricultural nitrogen ending up in marine ecosystems, driving eutrophication and biodiversity loss.

🐟 Behind a net of secrecy: how power dynamics shape EU fisheries policy and its sustainability outcomes
EU fisheries policy has helped reduce overfishing, from 72% in 2004 to 22% in 2023, but marine biodiversity is still in critical condition.
