New UN agreement on deep seas ready

At the eleventh hour, or rather the 30th, it’s clear: the UN has a new agreement to protect the world’s deep seas. The deadline was set for 6pm on Friday New York time. At 21.30 on Saturday, Rena Lee announces that they have agreed on a text.

“The boat is in port,” says a teary-eyed Rena Lee, chairman of the UN Deep Sea Conference, and is met by a long standing ovation.

“It feels like a lifetime since I came to the plenum,” she says.
