Join leading scientists, policy makers, and ocean advocates for an interactive lunch session on 11 June (13:15–14:45) at Mama Shelter, Nice, as part of the #UNOC3 side events.
‘Beyond tipping points: safeguarding biodiversity in a changing ocean’
With marine biodiversity under threat from warming seas, acidification, pollution, and overfishing, this session explores the complexity behind so-called environmental tipping points. Are they useful for action, or do they oversimplify a highly dynamic system?
Expect:

A buffet lunch and engaging quiz
Insights from international experts
A candid panel discussion on the limits of tipping points and the importance of context, scale, and multiple stressors
Perspectives from science, policy, and Indigenous knowledge systems

Speakers include experts from the IUCN, University of Tasmania, and the Planetary Boundaries group, with moderation by Sam Dupont (University of Gothenburg/IAEA OA-ICC).
Organized by the OACIS initiative and supported by partners including the IAEA, Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation, Institut de la Mer de Villefranche, and others.
Let’s rethink how we use science to shape better ocean policy—join the debate.
