A Blue New Deal

In A Blue New Deal, Chris Armstrong addresses the urgent decline of the world’s oceans and the dual crises of environmental destruction and economic inequality affecting marine resources. He critiques existing governing institutions for their inadequate responses to pressing issues such as rising sea levels, labor exploitation in fisheries, and the rights of marine life. Armstrong advocates for the establishment of a powerful World Ocean Authority to prioritize equality, democracy, and sustainability in ocean politics, presenting a bold vision for a healthier future for our oceans.
