The ocean is one of our best allies': Razan Al Mubarak aims to build on Cop28 momentum
Environmental leader highlights the need to 'scale up on ocean-based mitigation action' to drive climate action
A leading UAE environmental campaigner shined the spotlight on advancing ocean conservation as a critical component of the climate agenda.
“Following our progress at Cop28, we have integrated ocean conservation more deeply into our climate strategies,” said Razan Al Mubarak, UN Climate Change High-Level Champion for Cop28.
Speaking at the second Mena Oceans Summit in Dubai, she highlighted how countries that backed the landmark move on fossil fuel at Cop28 had also agreed to “preserve and restore oceans and coastal ecosystems and scale up, as appropriate, ocean-based mitigation action”.
