Antigua and Barbuda Ratifies Key UN Agreement on Marine Biodiversity Conservation

When we can’t even preserve biodiversity on our shoreline what’s the point in getting involved in the Conversation and Sustainable Use of Marine Biological Diversity of Areas Beyond National Jurisdiction.

You going to have a discussion about the vulnerability of your neighbors house to fire, while your house is already on fire.

Meaningless accept it puts Antigua and Barbuda in the room to ask for more handouts.

A great step towards protecting our marine ecosystems—this is crucial for the future of Antigua and Barbuda.

Ratifying this agreement shows commitment to global conservation efforts, but will it benefit local communities as well?

Will it affect industries like fishing or tourism?

Important decision, but Antigua and Barbuda must ensure this treaty brings real benefits to local ecosystems.

Will the necessary resources be allocated to ensure success?

I love my prime minister. Fullstops!

It’s very laughable that the government we so believe in, talks almost everyday about saving the planet while destroying our own little environment with things like dredging for LNG. Hypocrites I will say. How can you people claim to care about climate change when you’re ruining our beautiful oceans for profit that only surrounds you little administration? They’re just doing whatever benefits them, and the rest of us have to deal with the consequences. In the end we play dumb

I’m all for global climate agreements, but it’s hard to ignore the fact that we’re damaging our own environment at the same time. How can we hold others accountable when we’re doing the same thing? it’s almost unbelievable that the very people that wants to the environment are the very same people damaging it.

The BBNJ Agreement is a significant step forward for the country in advocating for marine conservation, but we must also ensure that we’re not compromising our own environmental integrity in the process. let’s think about something here.

It’s really cool that Antigua is trying to step up on climate change globally, but if we’re messing up the environment locally, it doesn’t really add up, right?. I mean the government is all about saving the planet, as they say, but then they’re dredging the ocean for LNG ships? help me understand a little bit of something here.

We dont care about these agreements. We want money in our pockets, food on our tables and education for our children…………..

I applaud Antigua and Barbuda efforts in the fight against climate change

Great
