Australia's Plan for Antarctic Sanctuary Gains... Less Ground?
2014-10-21 22:06:00| Climate Ark Climate Change & Global Warming Newsfeed
Nature World: Australia's plan for creating a vast marine reserve off Antarctica has gained less ground, but the country said Monday it's still hopeful in the sanctuary's success. A bid for the Marine Protected Area (MPA) was first put forward in 2011 by Australia, along with France and the European Union. But the Commission of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR) knocked back the idea, which would encompass 760,000 square miles (1.9 million square kilometers) of the Last Continent. So those down under...
