Marine protected areas are the subject of our new episode.
The ocean represents ¾ of the Earth's surface and provides numerous services and resources, as it contributes to climate regulation and food. But human activities threaten and affect it. Marine protected areas are therefore a crucial tool for meeting the international target of protecting 30% of land and sea by 2030. At present, marine protected areas cover only 8% of the ocean. Although they are mainly located near the coasts, the international community is now mobilizing to protect the high seas, where there are few such areas. The adoption of the High Seas treaty in 2023 now offers new opportunities to extend marine protected areas. How can they be created and managed on the high seas? Alexandra Oliveira Pinto answers Sophie Larmoyer's questions.

La transition écologique (transition énergétique ou agroécologique, questions de développement...) est un sujet de politiques publiques. Elles sont complexes, parfois sous-tendues de blocages ou d'incompréhensions. À l’Iddri, nous proposons des pistes de solutions, basées sur la science. Nous les mettons dans le débat démocratique car elles s'adressent aux décideurs politiques et économiques, et à toute la société civile. Dans ces podcasts, les chercheurs de l'Iddri vous présentent leurs pistes de réflexions ou celles d'experts invités éclairant le débat.
