73% of the World's Marine Protected Areas Are Polluted by Sewage: What Can Be Done?
A recent study has confirmed what many coastal ecologists have long suspected but lacked the data to quantify: marine protected areas (MPAs) are failing to keep out sewage, one of the ocean's most pervasive threats.

#Seaturtle boom may be hiding a population collapse
#Globalwarming causes temperatures to rise, more sea #turtle eggs are developing into females. As in some other #reptiles turtle’s sex is dependent on incubation temperature. Without enough males, even a seemingly thriving population can collapse.
Conservation efforts, #marineprotectedareas, fishing regulations and protecting egg clutches, are helping populations, but may not provide full picture.

MongabayU.S. President Donald Trump has moved to reopen the Northeast Canyons and Seamounts Marine National Monument to commercial fishing, arguing it won’t harm marine species and will support the industry.
Conservationists say the protected area is a vital sanctuary — and warn of wider rollbacks affecting other U.S. marine monuments.
