Sky launches pop-up to showcase ocean health awareness

October 2, 2017 - Staff@seenituk

A PLASTIC WHALE – A special report on the devastating effects of plastic on ocean wildlife, after a post-mortem of a Cuvier’s beaked whale confirmed its intestines were entirely clogged with plastic.
Sky is continuing its support of ocean health this week with the launch of a dedicated ‘pop-up’ channel, Sky Ocean Rescue which will let customers watch live events and panels from the EU Our Ocean Conference in Malta on the 5th and 6th October.

The Sky Ocean Rescue channel will air in the UK (channel 566), Germany (channel 384), and Italy (channel 505). It will also be available to view via the Sky News website (news.sky.com) and the Sky News You Tube channel.

The channel, available from Wednesday 4th until Sunday 9th October, will broadcast a selection of Sky Ocean Rescue content including Sky News’ investigative reports, interviews and documentaries including A Plastic Tide and A Plastic Whale. Live coverage of the EU Our Ocean Conference, presented by Sky News presenter Gillian Joseph, will begin on Thursday 5th October.

Head of Sky News, John Ryley said: “Sky is committed to shining a spotlight on the issue of ocean health through Sky Ocean Rescue.

“For the first time ever Sky is launching a dedicated ‘pop up’ channel for Ocean Rescue, giving our viewers across Europe the chance to hear from the world’s leading scientists and environmental influencers live from the EU Our Ocean Conference in Malta.”
