The #30x30 target is about so much more than increasing the coverage of terrestrial ecosystems under conservation.

30% of our #oceans under effective & equitable conservation is a critical element to achieving the target.

The ocean is home to 250,000 known species & countless more awaiting discovery.

Yet, marine species face a triple threat of rising temperatures, acidification & deoxygenation.

Let's do more to protect this biodiversity hotspot: https://t.co/aCCeGUYDJs https://t.co/1UVflExsWS - UNESCO 🏛️ #Education #Sciences #Culture 🇺🇳
