I was the copy editor, designer and picture researcher of Greenpeace’s comprehensive report: ‘In Hot Water: The Climate Crisis and The Urgent Need for Ocean Protection.’
I always relish the opportunity to get behind the words and visuals of a project and to use my multidisciplinary skills to their fullest.
The report highlights the fact that our oceans are facing an ecological tipping point, with fossil fuels, destructive fishing, deep-sea mining and pollution causing biodiversity loss and habitat destruction at an unprecedented rate—all of which is exacerbated by climate change. But it maps out solutions too. Next year, there's a historic opportunity to do something about it and Greenpeace is urging the UN to agree a robust Global Oceans Treaty to safeguard these ecosystems and the marine life who depend on them.
