Precautionary Principle and Ecosystem Approach

"Many policymakers and scientists now agree that we must adopt a radical new approach to managing the seas -- one that is precautionary in nature and has the protection of the whole marine ecosystem as its primary objective. This ecosystem approach is vital if we are to ensure the health of our oceans for future generations." - excerpt from the summary of the Worldwatch Report, Oceans in Peril: Protecting Marine Biodiversity.
