Welcome to the Climate Edition of the OneOcean briefing. Ahead of the UNFCCC Ocean-Climate Dialogues, this briefing analyses the narratives, themes and trends around both the climate and the ocean as topics in English language international media. The briefing considers both topics separately, as well as exploring the intersection between the two.
The full OneOcean Response Room weekly briefing and supporting analysis is available to Flotilla members. If your organisation is interested in receiving this briefing, is not a member and interested in joining, please email travis@oceanprotect.org

The OneOcean briefings focus on data collection around ‘ocean’ as a broad topic in international English-language media, with supporting social media analysis. The briefings explore which ocean-related stories are achieving coverage and cut through, identify where communications opportunities exist, and explore how communication can be made more impactful. The first few briefings will build up our data set and include observations on key themes but – as with the COVID-19 briefings – it will take a few briefings before we can identify trends and patterns that are emerging and evolving over time.
With this new iteration of the briefing, we find ourselves in a new operating space. Many of our standard advocacy channels are proving difficult to access, and the informal and formal influencing structures that we rely on to do our work have changed. Momentum for ocean protection can and must be regained, but in this environment aligned asks and co-ordinated messaging have an ever-increasing role to play, and we need to be both creative and resolute in ensuring the ocean voice is heard.
The briefing provides recommendations and example materials which reflect the findings from our analysis. Find to follow a summary of the top-line findings of this week’s briefing, covering 12th – 25th October 2020.

The OneOcean team has been working on a fortnightly media analysis – the OneOcean Response Room briefing – that looks at the intersections between COVID-19 and environment content, the environment and ocean content, and ocean and COVID-19 content on both legacy and social media.
During the COVID-19 situation, it is important to understand the kind of conversations that are taking place, what is resonating with people and why, to ensure that our communication is as impactful as possible and – at the very least – does no harm in this sensitive time.
The briefing provides recommendations and example materials which reflect the findings from our analysis. Find to follow a summary of the top-line findings of this week’s briefing, covering 24th August – 6th September 2020.

Nature v Business was a virtual event hosted by Prospect Magazine with the kind support of Calouste Gulbenkian Foundation, UK Branch. Arising from the pandemic, it brought together journalists to discuss the need for a new reporting paradigm about the importance of protecting nature in economic recovery. During the first months of the pandemic, research showed that people across the world embraced nature and understood that we have lost balance with the natural world. More recently, it has identified an emerging narrative that deliberately decouples planetary health from economic recovery. The panel of journalists discussed the current reporting environment and the need for change.
When we paused the briefing for the month of August, we committed to continuing to monitor emerging issues and to making you aware of anything important. We believe that the Mauritius oil spill is an important issue for ocean protection. As such, this media briefing covers the development of the oil spill story in English-language legacy media since 25th July.
In this briefing we will not provide communications recommendations. Instead, we want to direct your support to a campaign that is being supported by Oceans 5. This effort is supporting marches that will take place in Mauritius this weekend and an associated open letter to the Prime Minister of Mauritius.
You can find their open letter here. To sign on to the letter or for further information please contact zara.currimjee@gmail.com.
The social media assets in this briefing support the messages of this campaign.
