“A historic opportunity is at hand to make positive and lasting changes in the way we manage our oceans. …An important part of this new framework is strengthening…efforts to identify and resolve issues at the regional level. It is also critical that decisions about ocean and coastal resources be based on the most current, credible and unbiased scientific data and information. …ocean education should be strengthened to better engage the general public.”
- An Ocean Blueprint for the 21st Century, U.S. Commission on Ocean Policy, 2004
