Jullan Defoe<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">As Dominica joins the rest of the world to recognize \u2018World Oceans Day\u2019 today (June 8), Minister of State in the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, Blue and Green Economy, Jullan Defoe urged the public to take action to protect and restore the ecosystem.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He made the call during an address in observance of World Oceans Day under the theme:\u00a0\u00a0\u201cPlanet Ocean: tides are changing.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cAs we join the rest of the world in celebrating the beauty and wonder of our oceans, we cannot ignore the challenges we face,\u201d he said. \u201cHuman activities such as pollution have taken a toll on our marine ecosystems, threatening their health and resilience capabilities.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Defoe continued, \u201cThe tides of change are upon us and it is imperative that we take decisive action to protect and restore the ecosystem, services our oceans provide.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Furthermore, he said as a nation significant progress has been made in the conservation and protection of the country\u2019s marine space and its resources.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cConsidering our land area is just 754 square kilometers, whereas the marine space within Dominica\u2019s exclusive economic zone is 28,500 square kilometers, approximately 38 times larger than the land area,\u201d Defoe explained.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He said the Government of Dominica has demonstrated its commitment to ocean conservation and as such has taken decisive action from an international and national perspective, which include, but are not limited to, accession to the United Nations Food and Agriculture agreement and court-state measures to combat illegal and unregulated and unreported fishing in 2016.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Defoe pointed out that in 2019 Dominica placed a ban on single-use plastic.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThis is Dominica\u2019s significant and impactful contribution towards addressing the global issue of plastic pollution and its impact on the marine environment and resources thereof,\u201d Defoe stated.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">He added, \u201cIn 2023 the Cabinet approved for the gazetting of fisheries regulations that will provide structure and enforcement for sustainable utilization of our fisheries resources.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Defoe went on to state that in November 2023 Dominica announced the establishment of the world\u2019s first sperm whale reserve.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cThis initiative is primarily for the protection of our residential population of sperm whales and to increase the percentage of marine space,\u201d he explained.\u201dThese interventions within our marine space support two main objectives articulated by the Honourable Prime Minister. The first being, to become the first climate resilient nation in the world and the second, the call for agriculture to contribute 700 million-dollars to Dominica\u2019s Gross Domestic Product (GDP) by the year 2030.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Defoe called on all Dominicans to join hands in a concerted effort to safeguard the country\u2019s oceans for future generations.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe all can play a part in the protection of our ocean with simple but rewarding actions such as proper disposal of your garbage,\u201d he urged. \u201cAnd I challenge you to begin today. On this World\u2019s Ocean Day let us reaffirm our commitment to the conservation and the sustainable use of our oceans.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cTogether let us harness the power of collective action to turn the tide and create a brighter future for our planet\u2019s ocean.\u201d<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Oceans covering over 70 percent of our planet are not just mass bodies of water. They are the lifeblood of our planet regulating climate, providing sustenance, and supporting vast biodiversity.<\/p>\n<p style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The collective oceanic waters are responsible for supplying between 5o-85\u00a0 percent of the oxygen within our atmosphere and absorbing about 33 percent of carbon dioxide from the atmosphere, which is a reminder of the critical role our oceans play in sustaining life on earth.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"As Dominica joins the rest of the world to recognize \u2018World Oceans Day\u2019 today (June 8), Minister of State in the Ministry of Agriculture, Fisheries, Blue and Green Economy, Jullan Defoe urged the public to take action to protect and&#8230;","protected":false},"author":13,"featured_media":323988,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"_acf_changed":false,"_cbd_carousel_blocks":"[]","footnotes":""},"categories":[237,22,286,235,76,9],"tags":[],"class_list":["post-323987","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","hentry","category-climate-change","category-environment","category-governance","category-homepage-carousel","category-international-relations","category-news"],"acf":[],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v27.6 -
