Un policy brief écrit [en anglais] par Raphaël Billé, Elisabeth Druel et Julien Rochette dans le cadre des débats préparatoires à la Conférence des Nations unies sur le développement durable (Rio+20) qui se tiendra à Rio de Janeiro (Brésil) en juin 2012.
Citation [en anglais] :
"Climate change and ocean acidification may well turn out to be the greatest threats to marine ecosystems along the 21st century, but this will largely depend on the way we manage other stressors. As global issues (i.e. issues which need to be addressed globally), they will however impact marine ecosystems and dependent societies very unevenly and at different time scales. This will challenge the willingness to and attempts at addressing these threats globally. Most importantly, oceans are faced for the first time with global threats rising after most levers and policy options to tackle them have already been identified and tested: reducing CO2 emissions, building ecosystem resilience through networks of marine protected areas (MPAs), the reduction of land‐based pollutions or reducing the pressure from fishing, etc. Although some minor progress has been made along these lines, efforts have remained vastly insufficient and unsuccessful."
