Description

OCEAN70 - climate change and plastic pollution mitigation global project; our commitment is based on the involvement of all necessary players to solve the problem of plastic pollution, acidity of the oceans and restoring marine life because it is the ocean and its condition that will decide the fate of humanity. Thanks to the implementation of the technology, combined with the plastic offset tool, we will obtain a stable marine ecosystem, reduce CO2 emissions, restore marine life, guarantee the microbiological stability of water, reduce contamination and areas of radioactive water. In addition, we focus on education, as well as the involvement of local communities in solving this problem, giving local governments ready-made tools. OCEAN70 is divided into 5 verticals : 1. UFO - unique floating object and AVL spin - tools to restore water in rivers, lakes, ocean itself 2. 70% of human and Earth is water - education part 3. plastic waste policies 4. B2E plastic offset tool & plastic credits stock 5. awareness campaign with sailor I would like to address the need of bold approach towards water treatment tools evolution. We can't solve current state of water resources using the same solutions we have been implementing for last 100 years. We need to rethink fully our approach towards water. We are only able to solve quality issues and microbiological stability of water by targeting immunity of water and empowerment of its ability to self-healing by popularizing and emphasizing the physical parameters of water, we are able to restore balance to the planet in a short time, thanks to which we will be able to reverse the effects of climate change and stabilize the situation in all water resources; involvement of all sectors is also essential; only through joint work on many levels, from education, through legal regulations to projects in which all stakeholders are involved, we can achieve a measurable action, which we do not have time to discuss in the next decade. Each project should include social, economic and environmental benefits. Only a holistic view of a given challenge is able to bring long-term, measurable results.

Expected Impact

The ocean70 project aims to fully revitalize the ocean on a global scale, including the factors that affect it directly and indirectly. When implementing projects on the coast, we take into account the micro and macro ecosystem, because we have to solve problems in the entire chain of dependent factors to be able to deliver measurable effects. In addition to the implementation of the technology itself, the project provides for the establishment of law, projects involving local communities, scientific units, education of people living by the ocean but also those inland, because every smallest change in behavior counted in millions of people around the world matters.

SDGS & Targets

Goal 14

Conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources for sustainable development

14.1

By 2025, prevent and significantly reduce marine pollution of all kinds, in particular from land-based activities, including marine debris and nutrient pollution

14.1.1

(a) Index of coastal eutrophication; and (b) plastic debris density

14.2

By 2020, sustainably manage and protect marine and coastal ecosystems to avoid significant adverse impacts, including by strengthening their resilience, and take action for their restoration in order to achieve healthy and productive oceans

14.2.1

Number of countries using ecosystem-based approaches to managing marine areas

14.3

Minimize and address the impacts of ocean acidification, including through enhanced scientific cooperation at all levels

14.3.1

Average marine acidity (pH) measured at agreed suite of representative sampling stations

14.4

By 2020, effectively regulate harvesting and end overfishing, illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing and destructive fishing practices and implement science-based management plans, in order to restore fish stocks in the shortest time feasible, at least to levels that can produce maximum sustainable yield as determined by their biological characteristics

14.4.1

Proportion of fish stocks within biologically sustainable levels

14.5

By 2020, conserve at least 10 per cent of coastal and marine areas, consistent with national and international law and based on the best available scientific information

14.5.1

Coverage of protected areas in relation to marine areas

14.6

By 2020, prohibit certain forms of fisheries subsidies which contribute to overcapacity and overfishing, eliminate subsidies that contribute to illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing and refrain from introducing new such subsidies, recognizing that appropriate and effective special and differential treatment for developing and least developed countries should be an integral part of the World Trade Organization fisheries subsidies negotiation

14.6.1

Degree of implementation of international instruments aiming to combat illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing

14.7

By 2030, increase the economic benefits to Small Island developing States and least developed countries from the sustainable use of marine resources, including through sustainable management of fisheries, aquaculture and tourism

14.7.1

Sustainable fisheries as a proportion of GDP in small island developing States, least developed countries and all countries

14.a

Increase scientific knowledge, develop research capacity and transfer marine technology, taking into account the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission Criteria and Guidelines on the Transfer of Marine Technology, in order to improve ocean health and to enhance the contribution of marine biodiversity to the development of developing countries, in particular small island developing States and least developed countries

14.a.1

Proportion of total research budget allocated to research in the field of marine technology

14.b

Provide access for small-scale artisanal fishers to marine resources and markets

14.b.1

Degree of application of a legal/regulatory/policy/institutional framework which recognizes and protects access rights for small‐scale fisheries

14.c

Enhance the conservation and sustainable use of oceans and their resources by implementing international law as reflected in United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, which provides the legal framework for the conservation and sustainable use of oceans and their resources, as recalled in paragraph 158 of "The future we want"

14.c.1

Number of countries making progress in ratifying, accepting and implementing through legal, policy and institutional frameworks, ocean-related instruments that implement international law, as reflected in the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, for the conservation and sustainable use of the oceans and their resources
