The Ocean x Climate Summit

The ocean is our biggest ally in mitigating climate change, but it’s also bearing the brunt of the climate crisis. It’s time the ocean takes center stage in the global agenda to protect our blue planet. Because we live on a blue planet, and it’s time we act like it.

On 11 November 2022 from 10 am- 5 pm EGY at the Park Regency Sharm El-Sheikh, The Ocean X Climate Summit presented by Oceanic Global immersed global stakeholders in the importance and potential of the ocean within the climate change narrative, and to support more stakeholder action for the ocean and all it sustains.

The Ocean x Climate Summit was presented by Oceanic Global, supported by Salesforce and programmed in partnership with UNESCO IOC and The Ocean Decade.

To encourage a groundswell of support for the ocean at COP, access to The Ocean x Climate Summit is first come, first served and free was for all who register.

COP (UNFCCC COP)

Taking place from November 6-18th 2022, the annual United Nations Climate Change Conference (UNFCCC COP) is the world's largest climate conference for multilateral discussion of climate change matters. While the multi-week gathering brings together thousands of attendees across including, government, industry, media, and NGOs from around the world, the ocean, which regulates the climate as well as connects and sustains us all, has historically taken a backseat within the conference’s core programming. And although the ocean has silently carried the weight of human activity on the planet for centuries, climate change has increasingly pushed its limits and the ocean needs our attention now.

For more information on the Official Conference we advise guests to visit the official COP website.
