Lack of Understanding
- "Human societies, for the most part, do not understand the immense economic, cultural, and aesthetic value that a sustainably managed coastal environment provides, or the societal cost of allowing them to degrade. Things that are not valued get neglected." - excerpt from the UN Policy Brief entitled, 'Stemming Decline of the Coastal Ocean: Rethinking Environmental Management' from the United Nations University, International Network on Water, Environment and Health. See the UN report.
