Blue Marine's Mission: 30% Ocean Protection by 2030
My hopeful story this week is the amazing work of the Blue Marine Foundation, whose mission is to see at least 30% of the world's ocean under effective protection by 2030 and the other 70% managed in a responsible way.
For a hopeful and insightful read, I would recommend the book "Rewilding the Sea" by Charles Clover, who is the co-founder of the Blue Marine Foundation. The book celebrates what happens when we step aside and let nature repair the damage.
One of the projects he writes about is the Lyme Bay Reserve Project in the UK, where in the last decade there has been a measurable revival of marine habitats, rare species, and many fish stocks. There is far to go, but there are signs of hope as we increasingly let nature do its thing.
