A journey into the health of our oceans, and what's changing.
Ocean Science
Six topics tracing what's physically happening to the ocean: how fast it's warming, how it moves carbon around the planet, where the emissions driving that come from, and what a serious response actually looks like.
The five ideas underneath everything else in this section, and why small changes here cascade everywhere else.
The current scenario: record sea-surface temperatures, basin by basin, and what's driving them.
How the ocean absorbs and stores carbon at planetary scale, and why that balance is shifting.
Where ocean-linked greenhouse gas emissions actually come from, sector by sector.
An interactive system map tracing warming's feedback loops across the planet.
The integrated strategy of mitigation and adaptation, and solutions rated by evidence.
Ocean Economy
Four topics on the forces reshaping ocean industries (shipping, aquaculture, energy, tourism) and the economic pressure points worth watching over the next 25 years.
Who draws value from the ocean today, and how that's shifting across the industries this section tracks.
Eight structural forces reshaping investment, labor and technology across the blue economy.
40+ signals across five categories: social, tech, economic, environmental and political.
Three early-stage spaces where new value is just beginning to take shape.
