Description
The world's oceans face numerous threats, from climate change to pollution and overfishing. However, existing laws already provide a framework for protecting the entire ocean. In "Future Sea", Deborah Rowan Wright presents a compelling argument for a radical shift in our approach to ocean conservation. She proposes a bold strategy of 100% ocean protection, which could put an end to destructive industrial activities and safeguard marine biodiversity. Wright examines existing international laws and gathers inspiring stories of communities and countries using ocean resources wisely. She also highlights successful conservation projects, building a cautiously optimistic picture of the future for our oceans. By questioning the underlying philosophy of established ocean conservation approaches, Wright offers a fresh perspective on how to address the challenges facing the world's oceans. This book provides a solution-focused approach, rather than dwelling on the problems. It shines a light on the tools and strategies needed to bring about long-overdue change in the way we use ocean resources.
