Heal the ocean

"Heal the Ocean emphasizes stories that show how people have succeeded in their efforts to reduce human impacts and even restore parts of the ocean. The author - a marine ecologist dedicated to protecting and restoring ocean ecosystems - first describes the nature of ocean environments and discusses current and emerging threats, including pollution, overfishing, poor land use, deep sea mining, and the search for new energy sources. He then urges that people build upon efforts that have successfully countered these threats." "Upbeat and inspiring, Heal the Ocean will appeal to professional environmental advocates, community leaders, opinion-shapers and policymakers, as well as all citizens wanting to protect the ocean."--Jacket.
