After two weeks of negotiations between more than 50 countries, the Fifth Session of the Intergovernmental Conference (IGC) ended last Friday without establishing a High Seas Treaty — once again leaving more than two-thirds of the global ocean unprotected. But important progress was also made, which the Only One community of supporters has helped push for. World leaders are closer than ever before to finalizing the treaty, and there’s reason to be optimistic that the next negotiation will be the last step in the nearly two-decades–long process. We can’t let up the pressure now, and we need you with us! Can you help build momentum for the coalition to protect the High Seas by sharing our petition with your network? We’re just shy of our goal of 75,000 signatures.

The 20 richest countries account for about 80% of the world’s carbon emissions — the main driver of climate change. Meanwhile, developing nations and small island states contributed very little to creating the climate crisis, but often bear the greatest costs. The Loss and Damage Fund would provide vital resources to countries coping with costs related to the impacts of climate change.
