OECD Ocean

Ocean economy and innovation

In addition to its crucial role for regulating the climate and weather, and providing critical ecosystem services, the ocean is vital to the world’s economy, with more than 90% of trade using sea routes and as a source of jobs for millions of people. The ocean is also the stage for a growing range of new ocean-related economic activities and constant innovations.
