The ocean covers over two-thirds of our planet. It produces a significant percentage of the planet's oxygen and contains 97% of the planet's water, with only 3% as freshwater. United Nations hallmarks the ocean as the world's greatest ally against climate change. The reason – it's ability to absorb carbon dioxide. Aquatic habitats like seagrasses and mangroves are responsible for reducing greenhouse gases in the atmosphere by absorbing CO2 at a rate higher than forests can. Additionally, seafood is a key ingredient to providing a lower carbon, climate friendly animal-based protein for the future. Choosing #seafood from sustainable fisheries is a considerable effort consumers can make towards a greener lifestyle. For businesses who work in tandem with our ocean, conscious sustainability efforts can take form in achieving sustainable fisheries or seafood certifications, such as Marine Stewardship Council (MSC). For those who work with freshwater, ensuring sustainable practices that meet stringent benchmarks shows commitment to water stewardship and a healthier, eco-friendly planet. Happy World Oceans Day!

Book & Claim serves as a crucial chain of custody system for emerging fuels and industries. According to a recent article by The Roundtable on Sustainable Biomaterials (RSB), this system is pivotal in fostering the development of new technologies while managing associated risks. RSB is at the forefront of establishing reliable book and claim systems, ensuring transparency and integrity in the process.
RSB has secured grant funding from the ISEAL Innovations Fund, which is supported by the SECO Economic Cooperation and Development to undertake a crucial research and development project that promotes an ecosystem approach to the growing market of independent book and claim registries. In light of the pressing global #climatecrisis, RSB has developed the RSB Book & Claim System, aimed at accelerating the decarbonisation efforts. Now, we are focusing efforts on promoting an ecosystem approach to the growing market of independent registries, so as to grow and maintain trust in #bookandclaim as a solution for hard-to-abate sectors like #aviation and #shipping. The grant will support efforts to cultivate a registry ecosystem that promotes #interoperability between registries, mitigates double counting risks, and ensures compliance with voluntary reporting frameworks such as SBTi. Through comprehensive research, expert input and technical developments, the project aims to establish a robust foundation for seamless data exchange, transparency and accountability within the book and claim system.
