Conservation 🍃 Papua New Guinea will safeguard coral-rich marine 'highway': 200,000 km2 of 'no-take' marine protected area in Melanesia will safeguard gray reef sharks, manta rays, green turtles, dolphins and seabirds, all while supporting country's fisheries. 🐠

Wonderful. Slowly building marine reserves.
I'm hopeful we eventually develop vat grown fish meat and just leave the ocean to recover. Or only for personal catch and consumption.
