To Protect And Surf: A Climate Change And Surfing Conversation

To learn about what you can do to mitigate the impacts of climate change, protect the beaches and breaks you love, and have a positive impact on the health of our marine environments, tune in to this conversation facilitated by WSL Commentator Ronnie Blakey. We'll dive into the value of our ocean, how it is being impacted by climate change, and the role we can all play in protecting it. Ronnie is joined by panellists: Ace Buchan (WSL Championship Tour surfer and WSL PURE Ambassador), Belinda Baggs (Co-Founder, Surfers for Climate), Billy Bain (Darug Indigenous Artist, Surfers for Climate Ambassador), Cat Dorey (Marine Parks Campaign Manager, Australian Marine Conservation Society), and Dr. Simon Bradshaw (Acting Head of Research, Climate Council of Australia).

You can also join the WSL and a coalition of over 80 organizations from around the world in raising our collective voices to protect and conserve our global ocean. Learn more about the We Are One Ocean campaign by visiting WeAreOneOcean.org. We are calling on world leaders to adopt a target at the 2021 United Nations Convention on Biological Diversity to protect and conserve at least 30 percent of the global ocean, including international waters, by 2030. We urge world leaders to be driven by science, and led by an inclusive process that embraces all stakeholder communities and considers the ocean's value to the peoples of every nation.
