Our Changing Ocean: A Vision for the 21st Century

California and the World Ocean Conference 2010 (CWO ‘10) will bring the world together to address issues of ocean protection and coastal resource management.

CWO ’10 will build upon Governor Schwarzenegger’s ocean protection legacy and highlight the work accomplished during his administration.  The event will also help to advance the Governor’s Ocean Action Plan and the efforts of California’s Ocean Protection Council.

CWO ’10 presentations will address ocean and coastal subjects that can be applied to resource management and policy. Emerging topics such as climate change impacts, marine spatial planning, marine protected areas, regional ocean governance, and renewable offshore energy will be featured, among other important topics. Presentations will focus on actions that can be taken at the local, state, regional, national, and international levels.

Leaders representing local, state, national and international interests, industry, scientists, non-governmental organizations and foundations will participate.
