Marine Conservation

Marine Conservation refers to the protection and preservation of oceanic environments and marine species. It involves the sustainable management of coastal, oceanic, and freshwater ecosystems to prevent overfishing, habitat destruction, pollution, and climate change impacts. The goals of marine conservation include maintaining biodiversity, promoting the health of marine ecosystems, and ensuring that marine resources are available for future generations. This can involve measures such as establishing marine protected areas, enforcing fishing regulations, rehabilitating habitats, and conducting research to better understand marine ecosystems. Marine conservation’s importance stems from oceans covering over 70% of the Earth’s surface and playing a critical role in global ecological balance, climate regulation, and providing livelihoods for millions of people.
