This, is fantastic news, @IbukunJ_Adewumi !!
It's a monumental moment for the world's ocean! Adopting the #BBNJ text is a significant step forward in the protection & sustainable use of biodiversity on the #HighSeas. As an ocean aficionado, I am confident this marks a turning point in how we approach ocean governance. #IGC5
