There is no shortage of international and regional commitments, agreements and scientific advice declaring the need for a network of marine reserves. What is lacking is the political will to make this a reality. This must change, and we believe that the people of the Mediterranean will play a crucial role in bringing this about.

Imagine a Mediterranean abundant with life; clean, healthy and productive. Marine reserves where your children and your children’s children can see the Sea in it’s full beauty and abundance – the way it is supposed to be. No longer should we accept that the Mediterranean is to be over-exploited and treated as a waste dump. It is not too late to act – and there is no excuse for a failure to act.

We need to tell our politicians – local, regional and international – that this is Our Sea, and we must protect it. We need the laws to make it possible for large-scale marine reserves to be created on the high seas of the Mediterranean. And we need a network of marine reserves to be created – starting today. Mediterranean countries must work together in preserving our Mediterranean, our shared resource and treasure.
 
It’s Our Sea – let’s protect it.
