We have some exciting news. Starting on February 20, leaders from around the world will meet at the United Nations, where — after nearly 20 years of negotiations — they could finalize one of the most important protection measures in ocean history: the High Seas Treaty. We’ve been doing everything we can to move the treaty forward, which is why Only One is teaming up with Greenpeace, the High Seas Alliance, RISE UP, and Jane Fonda to deliver our High Seas petition to key decision-makers at the start of the conference. But in order to maximize our impact and secure the future of our ocean through this treaty being agreed, we need your help to raise the volume on this effort to new levels. Add your name to the High Seas petition — we are so close to reaching our goal of 200,000 signatures.
The plastics crisis is a truly global issue, and its causes and consequences must be addressed comprehensively and consistently—Breathe This Air focuses on the environmental justice aspects of this treaty. The private sector has been slow and unwilling to take meaningful action to address the crisis, and so we need national governments to work together to enact meaningful, global regulations and commitments to address this catastrophe.
