Now, as I am preparing for the Our Ocean Conference in Palau—one of the small island states being heavily affected by rising sea levels—those thoughts remain at the forefront of my mind. Another way GGGI is helping address gear loss is through the incorporation of better tracking mechanisms and conducting gear technology trials.

Warmer temperatures will encourage the melting of glaciers, ice fields, summer Arctic sea ice, and permafrost, some of which may be irreversible. Sea levels will continue to rise throughout the 21st century, contributing to more frequent and severe coastal flooding in low-lying areas along coasts around the world.

In this blog post, we will discuss accessibility to clean water and sanitation as part of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 6 through the lens of Rachel’s research expertise and perspectives on sustainable agriculture and climate change. And of course, local action is of great importance as well.

There may also be requirements on what technologies must be used for mitigation such as the use of catalytic converters in cars that used older lead fuel (6). We are already seeing the depletion of the ice caps and rising sea levels. Dilution of salts in our oceans can affect the ecological balance of that ocean.
