Seabed 2030: Thursday 7th October, 13:30 BST
Seabed 2030 is a collaborative project between the Nippon Foundation of Japan and the General Bathymetric Chart of the Oceans (GEBCO). It aims to bring together all available bathymetric data to produce the definitive map of the world ocean floor by 2030 and make it available to all. This session focuses on the project from a Decarbonisation viewpoint and distils what we have learned and where as a community we need to go in order to achieve the Paris Accord agreement.
