A new study, published in Nature Ecology & Evolution, found that overfishing was still an issue on the little-investigated borders of a Marine Protected Area (MPA)

Marine Protected Areas are one of the key measures proposed by various countries when it comes to protecting the biodiversity of the ocean.

Climate measures undertaken at the G7 and expected at COP26 include creating more protected areas of forest and ocean, with the expectation that overfishing will decrease and fish stocks will be able to replace themselves – while the coral reefs of the world are also protected.
