Objectif Monde

Ocean: from oblivion to action?

Special programme to mark the Third United Nations Ocean Conference. Why have the oceans, the origin of life, been largely forgotten in the fight to protect the environment? What treaties are needed to protect them and rule on issues of sovereignty?

Guests: Yvan Bourgnon, French-Swiss navigator; Christophe Prazuck, director of the Ocean Institute at the Alliance Sorbonne university in Paris; Paul Watson, environmentalist and anti-speciesist activist, founder of the Sea Shepherd movement

Presented by: Dominique Laresche
