IAEA scientists use nuclear and nuclear derived techniques to understand the processes and mechanisms that control the oceans and propose strategies to protect people and the marine environment from the impacts of climate change, pollution, habitat destruction and biodiversity loss. IAEA assists countries in achieving the Sustainable Development Goal 14: “Life Below Water” (Conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources), by 2030.


Climate change is the greatest environmental challenge of our time. If the world is to meet the agreed climate goals within the available time frame, we need mature, readily deployable solutions.


Nuclear technology and applications contribute to tackling climate change. 
As the only world forum in the nuclear field, the IAEA will continue to contribute to an informed debate on the benefits of nuclear power and applications in the many international events that will take place, including COP28, where political leaders, industry, scientists and civil society will discuss the way forward. #cop28
