Protection of the Environment in the Mediterranean Sea.

      Аннотация: Mediterranean Sea is a common heritage of mankind. A natural gift to humanity, beautifully located among three continents, it is also home to many diverse species of marine flora and fauna. It is a duty on every one of us, every individual person and government and organization to do our best to protect the Mediterranean Sea as a whole, with all the living creatures and non-living values in and around the sea, against all kinds of environmental threats, whether it comes from land or ships or from other sources, like through the Suez Canal. Efficient environmental governance, strong public awareness and effective cooperation and coordination between governments and environmental organizations and institutions are key elements for the protection of the Mediterranean Sea, just as it is for the preservation of the global marine environment. Many generations have enjoyed all the benefits of this beautiful sea and the Mediterranean shall be preserved to continue to be not only a source of fish and other natural and logistical benefits, but also a source of joy and inspiration for future generations.
