A new wave of concern for ocean conservation

Talk of pollution is often not only in, but also about, the air.

Far less discussed is the protection of ocean, which has a royal defender - Prince Albert II of Monaco, who recently visited Beijing's Salon Monaco auditorium and spoke at a TEDx event, alongside Chinese and international environmentalists.

The event, Oceans: Innovation and Conservation, delved into challenges and solutions to issues related to marine-ecosystem preservation. It was organized by the Parkview Green Arts Action and Prince Albert II of Monaco Foundation.
