The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a set of 17 global objectives established by the United Nations in 2015 to address pressing global challenges. SDG 14, “Life Below Water,” focuses on conserving and sustainably using the oceans, seas, and marine resources for sustainable development. Oceans cover over 70% of the Earth’s surface and are vital for supporting life, regulating the climate, and providing resources such as food, medicine, and energy. SDG 14 aims to protect marine ecosystems, combat ocean pollution, and ensure the sustainable use of marine resources. Oceans are facing unprecedented challenges from pollution, overfishing, habitat destruction, and climate change. These threats endanger marine biodiversity and the livelihoods of billions of people who depend on healthy oceans. Global efforts are needed to restore and protect marine ecosystems.
