A lot of marine protected areas that are coming up do allow some fishing We support protected areas to conserve manage and protect marine resources. We cannot survive without healthy oceans. Yet they have been under too much stress from too many human activities for too many years. Overfishing resource extraction tourism recreation coastal development and pollution are damaging habitats and reducing populations of marine species at a frightening rate. It Marine protected areas MPAs although not immune to climate impacts provide areas of reduced stress on ecosystems and species allowing for the restoration and maintenance of natural processes that mitigate climate impacts and provide ecosystem services. One example of positive climate impacts from ocean protection comes from great whales.A recent study from my research shows how marine protected areas MPAs are an important tool for achieving ocean sustainability. Today only 6.4 per cent of the global ocean is protected and only 2.7 per cent of it has strong protection against harmful activities despite scientists calling for strong protection of at least 30 per cent. Last The need for large highly protected safe havens is urgent. I the undersigned demand that the leaders of my government the governments of the world and the appropriate international conservation agreements work together to create a global network of marine protected areas MPAs for whales and dolphins and other marine life and ecosystems.
