Overview of Oceans: The New Frontier Book
The ocean frontier is constantly being redefined by new discoveries, technologies, national strategies, and ecological imperatives. Increasing dependence of humanity on the resources of the oceans has blurred the boundaries between the mainland and oceans. As humanity's footprint extends, oceans are seeing intense conflicts between actors and issues. The book questions the ability of global governance to regulate access to resources and services provided by the oceans so as to protect the ocean ecosystems. The chapters show how the global governance system has not been adequately responsive while in many cases local initiatives have contributed the solutions. Special sites, like sea-ports, can provide levers for action. Oceans - The New Frontier is part of a series of annual publications on sustainable development (A Planet for Life) prepared under the scientific leadership of leading figures in the field of sustainable development. Contents: Negotiating our future with the oceans An environment to discover: marine biodiversity assessments The oceans: an inexhaustible source of energy? A globalized maritime economy: at what price? The rise of the cyborg fish: on attempts to make fisheries manageable Ocean governance: a fragmented regulatory framework A regional approach to marine environmental protection: the regional seas experience Maritime shipping at the crossroads of economic and environmental challenges On the curbing of illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing Perspectives on the whaling controversy Marine genetic resources: the patentability of living organisms and biodiversity conservation Ocean iron fertilization The arctic governance challenge Changing climate, changing ocean, changing planet
