Some
examples of the struggle against pollution
Only
when the sea becomes clean again will we be able to breathe easily. People have
now
woken up to the fact that the seas must be protected . Sea reserves were created
in the United States in 1943 and Japan soon followed suit. In 1963, Europe saw
the establishment of a Mediterranean reserve in the shape of the National Park
of Port-Cros, just offshore from Toulan (France). Other nature reserves have
been set up at sites of special interest in the Mediterranean, including one
in Corsica. Plans are also afoot to create a rederve in the English Channel.
