Healthy oceans: Keeping Asia and the Pacific afloat
Excerpt
Memories of idyllic beaches and sonorous waves may seem far away while we remain at home. Yet, we need not look far to appreciate the enduring history of the ocean in Asia and the Pacific. For generations, the region has thrived on our seas. Our namesake bears a nod to the Pacific Ocean, a body of water tethered to the well-being of billions in our region. The seas provide food, livelihood and a sense of identity, especially for coastal communities in the Pacific island states.
