The film features the World Ocean Summit Executive Director, Charles Goddard, discussing summit and the intersection of economy and sustainability.
Now in its fourth year, the Economist’s World Ocean Summit is the leading global summit on the ocean and brings together more than 300 individuals from 58 countries including ministers from key ocean states, investors, global business leaders, the next generation of ocean advocates, multilateral organisations and the scientific community for a constructive and solution-focused dialogue on how the blue economy is to be financed.
The summit will seek to find solutions for interoperability between business and government and examine how to integrate the uses of the ocean in a managed way as well as create a governance system which looks at the ocean as a whole rather than as separate sectors and industries, as has usually been the case.
This year, actor and ocean advocate Adrian Grenier will join the summit for a discussion about making conscious consumption an everyday act and looking at some of the technologies that can prevent plastics ending up in the ocean. Grenier is a passionate advocate of protecting and improving ocean health as well as raising awareness around ocean issues.
The World Ocean Summit is hosted by the events arm of the foremost international socio-economics news magazine, The Economist, in Bali, Indonesia from Feb. 22-24
