What's a Marine Reserve? by GreenPeace |
| For too long, marine life has been largely open for the taking by
anyone possessing the means to exploit it. Rapid advances in technology
have meant that the unsustainable ability, reach and power of vessels and equipment
used to exploit marine life now far outweigh nature's ability to
maintain it. If left unchecked, this will have far reaching consequences
for the marine environment and for people who depend on it. More information. EarthSayer Bill Ballantine |
