【“幽灵渔具”治理、“鲸豚遗产地认证”,如何更好地保护海洋生物?】海洋是海洋生物和人类共同生活的家园。据统计,全球每年有64万吨“幽灵渔具”,造成大约13.6万只海洋动物伤亡。我们如何更好地保护海洋生物?在首届亚洲公益论坛海洋与生物多样性分论坛上,世界动物保护协会科学家孙全辉分享了“幽灵渔具”治理和“鲸豚遗产地认证”的实践。海南智渔可持续科技发展研究中心科学总监郑锐强讲述了数字应用下的海洋生态保护新特点。今年9月,中国签署了《海洋生物多样性协定》。在海洋生态保护这条路上,新的探索与尝试为濒危的海洋生物带来新的希望。
Oceans are the home of marine life and humans. A sub-forum themed "Ocean and Biodiversity" at the Asia Philanthropy Forum focusing on practices of marine biodiversity conservation was held in late November in Haikou, south China's Hainan Province.
According to the World Animal Protection, 640,000 tonnes of "ghost gear," or discarded nets and fishing gear, injure or kill around 136,000 marine lives every year.
Sun Quanhui, a scientist from the World Animal Protection, shared experiences of marine life conservation projects such as "Global Ghost Gear Initiative" and "Whale Heritage Site program."
Following the idea that "wildlife belongs to the wild," Sun also shared practical tips on how to protect the oceans. http://t.cn/A6lZDltk
