Marine Reserves Help Boost Fish Stocks - More Reserves Needed

"Studies have shown that marine reserves help boost fish stocks, both within the reserve and in outlying waters. Because of this success, many scientists have argued that 30 percent of the world's oceans should be protected in order to save threatened fish stocks. Right now, such areas total just 0.1 percent." Excerpt from David Suzuki's "Science Matters" at http://enn.com/news/enn-stories/2002/10/10222002/s_48728.asp
