The fishing industry is a major contributor to marine debris.

Despite its many rivers, Iraq s fishing industry has remained relatively small and based largely on marine species in the Persian Gulf.

(b) Encourage States to develop partnerships with industry and civil society to raise awareness of the extent of the impact of marine debris on the health and productivity of the marine environment and consequent economic loss

But applications of nuclear science extend far beyond agriculture. El Salvador is now using nuclear technology to monitor its coastal waters for the presence of marine toxins that could threaten its vital fishing industry.

Global Marine Assessment

Enhanced marine scientific research is critical for sustainable exploration and exploitation of marine resources.

However, just as in Chiloé where fishermen blame the salmon farming industry for the environmental disaster, in Mejillones there are those who attribute the marine deaths to Corpesca, a fishing company that operates in the area.

Marine debris, also referred to as marine litter, is any persistent, manufactured or processed solid material discarded, disposed of or abandoned in the marine and coastal environment. Chapter X.B.

As long as the input of non degradable litter into the marine environment continues, the result will be increased quantities of marine litter in the coastal and marine environments.

According to the United States Marine Mammal Commission, 136 marine species have been reported in entanglement incidents in the wider United States area, including 6 species of sea turtles, 51 species of seabirds and 32 species of marine mammals (Marine Mammal Commission, 1996).

The Provincial Governments have extended this initiative industry by industry.

Chamber for Marine Environment Disputes

Numerous countries use Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) to protect critical breeding grounds and migration routes for marine life.

Australia welcomes the participation of non governmental organizations, industry representatives and scientists in the planned February meeting of the Ad hoc Open ended Informal Working Group studying the conservation and sustainable use of marine biological diversity in areas beyond national jurisdiction.

Marine wildlife tourism generates many times more revenues from non extractive activities, such as visits to intact marine habitats.
