What a f**king disgrace.

The UN agreed to a Global Ocean Treaty. This is the biggest conservation deal ever. Itβs the key way to protect 30% of our oceans by 2030. We need 60 countries to sign it into law. The UK Government pushed for the Treaty, so they should show leadership and implement it. act.gp/44M8iQA
