CAMLR Convention Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources A. Overview Antarctica is surrounded by an unbroken and dynamic body of water known as the Southern Ocean, which constitutes about 10% of the world's total ocean surface. For about 200 years, Antarctica's resources have been unsystematically harvested.

Ecosystem management Ecosystem management focuses on sustaining and restoring ecosystem health while balancing ecological, economic and social needs. By recognizing the interconnectedness of natural systems and human activities, the integrity and resilience of ecosystems can persevere in the face of challenges like climate change, habitat degradation and over-exploitation. This approach is ...

The Montreal Protocol The Montreal Protocol on Substances that Deplete the Ozone Layer is the landmark multilateral environmental agreement that regulates the production and consumption of nearly 100 man-made chemicals referred to as ozone depleting substances (ODS). When released into the atmosphere, those chemicals damage the stratospheric ozone layer, Earth’s protective shield that ...

We work to protect and restore coastal ‘blue carbon’ ecosystems for the sustainable provision of ecosystem services to people and environment. Mangroves and seagrass meadows are coastal ecosystems that cover a small portion of the total ocean area but collectively are widely distributed on every continent except Antarctica. Mangroves are found in 123 countries worldwide with an estimated ...

NAIROBI, 9 January 2023 – The ozone layer is on track to recover within four decades, with the global phaseout of ozone-depleting chemicals already benefitting efforts to mitigate climate change. This is the conclusion of a UN-backed panel of experts, presented today at the American Meteorological Society’s 103rd annual meeting. Examining novel technologies such as geoengineering for the ...
