Over 10,000 global leaders, scientists, and activists have gathered in Nice, France, for the 3rd UN Ocean Conference (UNOC3) to address the ocean crisis. India, with its 7,500 km coastline, is playing a key role, led by Earth Sciences Minister Dr. Jitendra Singh. Focus areas include the Blue Economy, plastic pollution, marine biodiversity, and coastal resilience. India will advocate stronger ocean governance and push for ratifying the High Seas Treaty. With rising sea levels, plastic-choked beaches, and damaged reefs, India sees UNOC3 as a chance to drive global change and safeguard marine resources for future generations. (PC: NDTV)
