In Nice, the third United Nations Conference on Oceans is taking place, an event that highlights the urgency of the current environmental crisis. UN Secretary-General António Guterres opened the summit with a strong statement: “We are failing the ocean.” His message underscores the severe challenges facing marine ecosystems due to climate change, overfishing, pollution, and ocean acidification.
With the presence of more than 120 nations and 50 leaders, Guterres emphasized that the situation is alarming, with coral reefs collapsing and rising sea levels threatening coastlines and islands. Costa Rica, co-hosting the event alongside France, was represented by its president, Rodrigo Chaves Robles, who asserted that this meeting should be remembered as a milestone in the global understanding of the obligation to protect the oceans, viewing it as a moral and essential matter for human survival.
In the international context, the crisis in Gaza has escalated dramatically, with the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs reporting the deaths of at least eight people at a food distribution point. The situation is further complicated by fuel reserves reaching critical levels, which could lead to a halt in humanitarian aid in the coming days.
In parallel to these events, Israel intercepted a ship named Madleen, which was headed for Gaza and carrying humanitarian aid. On board was Swedish activist Greta Thunberg, raising concerns about the safety of those on board.
In the realm of public health, the World Health Organization has declared that the global rise in cases of mpox remains an emergency. The situation in various regions, especially West Africa, is a significant concern, even as some countries have ramped up their response efforts.
Finally, the UN has expressed alarm over the militarization of protests in Los Angeles. In response to demonstrations against immigration raids, President Donald Trump decided to deploy 2,000 members of the National Guard. The organization has called for de-escalation and dialogue, stressing the importance of maintaining peaceful coexistence during times of social tension.
