Is enough being done to protect the world’s oceans from exploitation? 

Depending on what we are and where we live, the answers may well vary, and they all make sense, but in my view, the international community has made strides over the years, in stopping marine exploitation. Now let me explain the details.     

First, countries have established regulations, such as “no-fishing zones,” and “closed seasons,” in their territorial waters, to prevent excessive fishing. Plus, scientists are using genetic engineering to restore species populations successfully in some areas. In addition, international framework is working to crackdown illegal fishing with harmful fishing gear, with satellite images and GPS monitoring.     

Next, I understand some may argue that challenges remain, such as curbing marine pollution. However, the public also understands that the authorities are trying their best with limited resources, and expresses support for them. It will take years of hard work and commitment to resolve these problems. In other words, just we don’t see quick results doesn’t necessarily mean nothing is happening.           

So, even though there is still room for improvement, countries are making their best efforts to heading off marine exploitation across the world. Thank you for your attention. [186 Words Type-E]
