ACRES SUPPORTED BY PROJECT

In addition to the establishment of new marine and forest reserves that currently "save" hundreds of thousands of acres, Seacology has worked closely with local islanders to get them to play an active role in protecting close to where they live. The following areas were previously established as government reserves, but local enforcement of environmental protections was either lax or nonexistent. Seacology "supports" these protected areas so that they are not only protected on paper but in practice as well.
