| Résumé : | The economy in the Mediterranean depends on healthy marine ecosystems, especially in the fishing and tourism sectors. Yet biodiversity and fish stocks have declined dramatically, and climate change and rapid economic development threaten further losses. To secure the future of the region and its communities, WWF and others are calling for a network of effective marine protected areas (MPAs) and other effective area-based conservation measures (OECMs) covering 30% of the Mediterranean Sea by 2030. Designated MPAs now cover 9.68% of the Mediterranean Sea, but effectively managed ones make up just 1.27%. Conserving in an effective way at least 30% of the Mediterranean Sea will be crucial to maintain and restore biodiversity, which is the foundation of marine ecosystems and their capacity to: n Rebuild fish stocks n Mitigate the impacts of climate change n Secure the future of sustainable fisheries and tourism n Guarantee food, livelihoods and well-being for local communities. WWF collaborated with marine research institutes to provide the first scientific study on how a proposed 30% conservation target would change the marine biodiversity and the fish stocks of the Mediterranean Sea. These scenarios propose candidate areas to protect that will contribute to reaching the 30% target by 2030. They show also how removing unsustainable industrial fishing and other damaging activities from these areas would reverse the current trend of decline in the marine ecosystem. This report summarizes the key findings of this research, and outlines a series of actions to support Mediterranean countries to achieve the 30% target. |
