“The ocean together with its coastal zones plays a central and positive role in human life”

“The global ocean regulates the climate, nurtures biodiversity for sustainable fishing, and produces most of the oxygen we breathe. Its extraordinary beauty and wealth shape the world’s economy and is even considered an essential part of the human consciousness and mental health. People have lived in harmony with the ocean for generations. However, nowadays, most common social and economic models are causing environmental damages. As a result, vulnerable marine resources and habitats are endangered. Climate change with its extreme weather events, rising sea levels, higher acidity, and deoxygenation of the global ocean inflict devastating pressure on the resilience of precious ecosystems.”
