Conservation And Protected Areas Questions
The role of marine protected areas in conservation is to safeguard and preserve marine ecosystems, habitats, and species. They serve as designated areas where human activities are regulated or restricted to minimize negative impacts on marine biodiversity. Marine protected areas help to maintain and restore the health of marine ecosystems, promote sustainable fishing practices, protect endangered species, and provide a safe haven for marine life to thrive. They also contribute to scientific research, education, and public awareness about the importance of marine conservation.
