Significant gaps are emerging in international efforts to address the state of the oceans, according to Pascal Lamy.
At a time when, unfortunately, we see the US distancing itself from ocean action, there is a sort of void appearing. The former trade chief made these remarks during the All-Atlantic Ocean Research and Innovation Alliance forum, held in Brussels on September 25 and 26.
Lamy went on to say that Europe might limit the damage by reinforcing its cooperation with Africa.
Meanwhile, the scientific community is actively working to fill the knowledge gaps in the Atlantic basin, including crucial polar regions.
