CLIMATE CHANGE & LIFE BELOW WATER
COMMUNITY ACTION PROJECT
Human well-being cannot be achieved without the protection and conservation of the Earth’s ecosystem. To maintain the quality of life that the oceans have provided to humankind, while sustaining the integrity of their ecosystems, a change will be required in how humans view, manage and use oceans, seas and marine resources.
