The latest United Nations Ocean Conference, UNOC3 just ended in Nice. Among the 15,000 delegates - and 100,000 visitors - I share with you 30 Ocean voices. Young activists, artists, scientists, campaigners: they are all Ocean lovers and defenders. I am Louise Romain, sound artist, documentarist, anthropologist, and the podcast producer of Circle of Voices, for this episode I created a patchwork of voice notes received via Signal, Telegram and Whatsapp. This is a three part series. In Part 1, these 10 Ocean voices address deep sea mining, the high-seas treaty or BBNJ, plastic pollution, mangrove and coral reef restoration, the ocean-climate-biodiversity nexus, youth leadership and fair inclusion, rights of nature and specifically Antarctic, acoustics, machine learning and AI, community rights and ocean justice, the blue economy, direct funding and debt restructuring, and more...!
