The Law of the Sea and the Planetary Crisis: In Conversation with the Authors SYNOPSISJoin the Singapore Sustainable Futures Initiative and the Centre for Commercial Law in Asia for the official book launch webinar for The Law of the Sea and the Planetary Crisis edited by Associate Professor Nengye Liu (Singapore Management University) and Professor Shirley Scott (University of New South Wales, Canberra). This book examines the challenge of negotiating and implementing new legal regimes addressing contemporary ocean challenges in the context of uncertain planetary futures. It covers the themes of climate change, biodiversity loss, and pollution. Contributors examine a range of emerging, understudied issues, including the legal regulation of ocean acidification, the development of the mining code by the International Seabed Authority, the implementation of the 2023 Biodiversity Beyond National Jurisdiction (BBNJ) Agreement, and compliance mechanisms developed by the International Maritime Organization. Other chapters look at energy transition, green technology, and marine pollution from shipping. Hear directly from the authors on these vital and timely topics in this webinar as they each provide an overview of their contribution and answer audience questions.
