The Next Public Health Emergency

The new Lancet Commission on sea-level rise and health, co-chaired by Christiana Figueres, has reframed ocean degradation as a direct public health emergency, not a distant environmental problem. This session builds on that momentum, exploring the fast-moving science connecting ocean health to human health: from microplastics in our arteries to marine organisms that could yield the next generation of cancer drugs. If the ocean is a public health system, its degradation is already a health crisis with measurable consequences.
