At the Coral Triangle Initiative Business Summit, a myriad of opportunities await sectors that rely on marine resources. Come and discover sustainable business solutions and explore financial opportunities for profitable "green" investments that help conserve this fragile, resource-rich region.
Businesses in the Coral Triangle must support national strategies to protect underwater environments or risk losing the precious marine resources that underpin the region’s economies, WWF said today at the close of Oceans Day at Copenhagen.
Reef fish are a highly valuable natural asset in the Coral Triangle. Yet the current trade in this resource is destroying marine environments, depleting fish stocks and leaving coastal communities vulnerable. How can we change this dangerous course?
Across the Coral Triangle, entire populations of marine turtles are being wiped out. What will it take to bring them back?
Tuna feeds millions of people, sustains economies, and is an essetnial ecological link in the marine food web. But in the Coral Triangle, these benefits are on the brink of being list. So what do we do?
A new method that uses gene sequencing to accurately distinguish between tuna species has the potential to support fisheries management and possible trade restrictions for endangered tuna species. The revelation closely follows news that an international wildlife trade convention is to consider a proposal to ban international trade in the Mediterranean tuna next March.
The world’s ability to control climate change could be crippled if global leaders do not support clear and effective targets to arrest deforestation at climate talks in Copenhagen in December, WWF said at the conclusion of a key global foresty summit.
Business and policy leaders will get together in Manila next year to debate how to protect the Coral Triangle, the world’s most diverse marine environment.
