As a student studying biology, I believe for maintaining and recovering ocean enviorment there should be domestic,government and international level of action.

For domestic level, people should aware of habitat devastating and try not to over consumption of sea property because if there is decreasing in consuming, should be less exploitation. Secondary, government have to impose high fee over overexploiting, catching small fishes and put continuing investment and experiment for sea enviorment. And for the International level, the most important factors of environmental drift is climate change especially water temperature for the sea culture and ocean pollution, for these things, all world should gather and find solution for everybody. The mother earth is only one, can not be replaced. We should love and protect it before it is too late.
