Win-Win Situation for the Large, New Marine Protected Area in the Great Barrier Reef

"This win-win for fishermen and the environment is due to four years of hard work by the Australian government, coastal communities, industry leaders and WWF's Australia office," said Scott Burns, director of WWF's Marine Conservation program. "The Great Barrier Reef's network of protected areas is a global benchmark that sets a precedent for future marine conservation." - excerpt from the ENN article at http://www.enn.com/direct/display-release-m.asp?objid=%7C%7CD1D1366D000000FD76EBBD996844B8AC
