Giving the ocean space to recover promises to help declining fish populations recover, restore habitat, and help save the climate, according to a new plan to save the seas.
Scientists have mapped out a network of potential protected areas intended to conserve marine biodiversity threatened by overfishing, deep-sea mining, plastic contamination, and climate change.
