The Ocean Health Index, published online by Nature, signals a new way of thinking about our relationship with the ocean.
The Index is the first comprehensive, annual assessment of the benefits that a healthy ocean provides through 10 goals, which emphasise the human-ocean relationship. The overall global score is 60 out of 100, indicating that this relationship is out of balance and unsustainable.
The Ocean Health Index is a collaborative project engaging over 65 scientists and ocean experts. Consequently, no single entity owns it; the Index is an independent brand.
