Actually achieving marine sustainability demands a radical re-think in approach, not 'more of the same'.

The UK is committed to meeting a series of 'high-level marine objectives' which are required to satisfy national obligations and to meet international commitments for the marine environment. There are more than 16 such international high-level policy driven obligations and commitments, together with more than 18 European and more than 12 of national origin. In the UK, there is an assumption that the current and planned monitoring will provide evidence to demonstrate achievement against these high-level objectives. Crown
