Speak Up For Ocean Protection Next Thursday in Los Angeles
The Marine Life Protection Act process is rounding the final curve, and it’s no surprise that different interest groups disagree about how to manage a few key spots. Southern California’s coastal gems—places like La Jolla, Naples Reef, Point Dume, and Palos Verdes--are equally popular with anglers and divers.
Right now, local stakeholders are finishing up plans for a network of marine protected areas that should preserve those gems for the enjoyment of future generations. But while conservationists, divers, scientists and surfers are working hard to build consensus around the need to set aside key areas, they’re running into steep opposition from the fishing community.
In order to create a successful ocean protection plan, we have to stop fighting over scraps, and start seeing the big picture. Take it from lifelong fisherman and retired Channel Islands Marine Sanctuary Manager Gary Davis: the real threat is inaction.
Stakeholders will finalize marine protected area proposals next week, and accept public comments on Thursday morning:
September 10, 2009
Sheraton Gateway Los Angeles
6101 West Century Blvd
Los Angeles, CA 90045
Maps are available for review from 7-7:45am
Public comments accepted from 9-11am
If you want to see your favorite dive or surf spot protected, please consider attending. To learn more or get involved, visit www.MPAsWork.org .
