Title: Marine protected areas (by country)
Author:
Comments:
Subject: This map shows the ratio (%) of Marine Protected Area (MPA) and the national marine waters area for each European Union country. Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) have been set up across the world’s oceans to protect vulnerable species and ecosystems, to conserve biodiversity and minimise extinction risk, to re-establish ecosystem integrity, to segregate uses to avoid user conflicts, and to enhance the productivity of fish and marine invertebrate populations. They provide a public focus for marine conservation and are commonly used around the world as management tools to promote the sustainable use of marine resources. Many MPAs also serve as living laboratories – critical to scientific research and discoveries that benefit humanity. When effectively managed, MPAs support the blue economy by helping to sustain fish stocks and bolstering tourism. The EU Biodiversity Strategy for 2030 sets the target of protecting 30% of EU land and sea by 2030. One third of this (10%), including areas of very high biodiversity and climate value, should be under strict protection.
