Let\u2019s give them the protection they deserve.<\/p>\n<p>Under the restless surface of our seas, hundreds of miles from land, there\u2019s a world of giants and hunters; ancient lifeforms and lost cities.<\/p>\n<p>These waters beyond national borders are home to creatures even more varied than in the tropical rainforests. They contain the highest and longest mountain range anywhere on our planet, and trenches deep enough to hold Mount Everest. They\u2019re the highways for whales, turtles, albatross and tuna on their cross-planet migrations.<\/p>\n<p>Protecting these natural wonders is simply the right thing to do. But this isn\u2019t just about conscience. It\u2019s about survival.<\/p>\n<p>The oceans produce half of our oxygen, and food for a billion people. And because they soak up huge amounts of carbon dioxide, they\u2019re also one of our best defences against climate change. Our fate is bound to the fate of our oceans. If they don\u2019t make it, we don\u2019t either.<\/p>\n<p><strong>A rescue plan for our oceans<\/strong><br \/>\nNow though, there\u2019s a ray of hope. Scientists have drawn up a rescue plan for our oceans &#8211; and we\u2019re going to throw everything we\u2019ve got at making it happen. Are you in?<\/p>\n<p>The ocean rescue plan is bold, and brilliantly simple: we cover the planet in ocean sanctuaries, putting a third of the oceans off-limits to fishing, mining and other destructive industries.<\/p>\n<p>If the rescue plan goes ahead, it\u2019ll be one of the biggest conservation efforts in human history, creating millions of square kilometres of new protected areas.<\/p>\n<p>Here\u2019s the problem: at the moment, there\u2019s no way to create new sanctuaries outside countries\u2019 national waters. We can\u2019t protect these huge areas of the ocean without an international agreement on how this protection would work.<\/p>\n<p>Governments have started work on a UN Ocean Treaty, and if they get it right it\u2019ll give us the tools we need to make these sanctuaries happen.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Join us on an epic voyage<\/strong><br \/>\nThe open oceans are some of the least studied &#8211; and least regulated places on Earth, and to properly protect them we need to know more about what\u2019s happening out there. [4]<\/p>\n<p>So this week, a team of scientists, photographers and campaigners is setting out on an epic journey from the North Pole to the South Pole to document a year in the life of our oceans, and build the best possible case for a strong UN treaty.<\/p>\n<p>Sailing on Greenpeace\u2019s swiftest and largest ship, the Esperanza, they\u2019ll be conducting crucial ocean research and protection &#8211; exposing the threats, peacefully confronting the villains, and championing the solutions.<\/p>\n<p>The team at sea needs as many people as possible on land to make sure their findings can\u2019t be ignored. Will you join the campaign?<\/p>\n<p><strong>Ocean sanctuaries work<\/strong><br \/>\nAll over the world, wherever a proper ocean sanctuary is created, the results are dramatic. Habitats recover. The fish come back. Life finds a way.<\/p>\n<p>But because sanctuaries work so well, the people who profit from dumping and plundering our seas are working hard to water down the treaty. It\u2019s up to us to make sure nature and ordinary people have a voice in this too.<\/p>\n<p>When we work together we can change the world. From stopping Shell\u2019s oil drilling in the Arctic, to getting the world\u2019s largest tuna company to clean up its act for people and the planet, we know how to stand up for our seas &#8211; and win. [5]<\/p>\n<p>But now it\u2019s time to go even bigger. Over the next year, this mission will need all the courage, cunning and creativity we can find. But today, it just needs your name.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"http:\/\/act.gp\/PTO?utm_campaign=oceans&amp;utm_source=website&amp;utm_medium=referral&amp;utm_content=blog&amp;utm_term=protect-the-oceans\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\"><strong>Sign the petition to get started.<\/strong><\/a><\/p>\n\t\t\t<section\n\t\t\tclass=\"boxout post-2823 \"\n\t\t\t\n\t\t>\n\t\t\t<a\n\t\t\t\tdata-ga-category=\"Take Action Boxout\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-ga-action=\"Image\"\n\t\t\t\tdata-ga-label=\"n\/a\"\n\t\t\t\tclass=\"cover-card-overlay\"\n\t\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/mena\/en\/act\/defending-our-oceans\/\" \n\t\t\t><\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<img\n\t\t\t\t\t\tsrc=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-mena-stateless\/2019\/04\/a0ae3999-gp04l2y_high_res-1024x728.jpg\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\tsrcset=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-mena-stateless\/2019\/04\/a0ae3999-gp04l2y_high_res-300x213.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-mena-stateless\/2019\/04\/a0ae3999-gp04l2y_high_res-768x546.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-mena-stateless\/2019\/04\/a0ae3999-gp04l2y_high_res-1024x728.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-mena-stateless\/2019\/04\/a0ae3999-gp04l2y_high_res-1921x1366.jpg 1921w, https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/static\/planet4-mena-stateless\/2019\/04\/a0ae3999-gp04l2y_high_res-478x340.jpg 478w\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\tsizes=\"(min-width: 1000px) 358px, (min-width: 780px) 313px, 88px\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\talt=\"\" title=\"\"\n\t\t\t\t\/>\n            \t\t\t<div class=\"boxout-content\">\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<a\n\t\t\t\t\t\tclass=\"boxout-heading medium\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-ga-category=\"Take Action Boxout\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-ga-action=\"Title\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\tdata-ga-label=\"n\/a\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\thref=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/mena\/en\/act\/defending-our-oceans\/\"\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\n\t\t\t\t\t>\n\t\t\t\t\t\tDefending Our Oceans\n\t\t\t\t\t<\/a>\n\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t<p class=\"boxout-excerpt\">Now we have a chance to turn things around, by putting the most vulnerable and important parts of our oceans off-limits to destructive industries.

I think I can speak for everyone here when I say that our team is special, in how we work together, how we relate to each other, how we resolve our differences and even how we express our frustration. It has always been great to end the day with an outing with the team, or a heated debate about current events. A week in the office was never complete without some kind of activity that brought us together as people, celebrating our passion for life, hobbies and interests, and - I must admit, several practical jokes! Moving our work online has definitely had an impact on our relationships with colleagues, volunteers, and external partners Somehow it feels like we\u2019ve been invited to become part of each other\u2019s lives at home: parents, partners, children and pets have now become regular guests on our video calls.

More than nine years have passed since I joined the team at Greenpeace, and it seems like just yesterday! I think I can speak for everyone here when I say that our team is special, in how we work together, how we relate to each other, how we resolve our differences and even how we express our frustration. It has always been great to end the day with an outing with the team, or a heated debate about current events. A week in the office was never complete without some kind of activity that brought us together as people, celebrating our passion for life, hobbies and interests, and - I must admit, several practical jokes! Moving our work online has definitely had an impact on our relationships with colleagues, volunteers, and external partners Somehow it feels like we\u2019ve been invited to become part of each other\u2019s lives at home: parents, partners, children and pets have now become regular guests on our video calls. I\u2019m proud to be working with a team that appreciates all its members in all the colour and diversity they bring to the table!
