Sydney's turtles, seahorses and over 580 species of fish are under pressure from the impacts of pollution, habitat degradation, invasive species and fishing. As climate change impacts become more apparent, these pressures are only going to increase. A Sydney Marine Park would enable us to properly manage Sydney's rocky reefs, sponge gardens and seagrass beds. Seahorses, turtles and dolphins are just some of the hundreds of creatures that would be protected within the marine park. Fishing in the majority of the marine park would be balanced by fully protected sanctuary zones where marine life can surge back to life. Meanwhile a team of staff would be on hand to monitor Sydney's marine waters and help overcome threats to its marine life. Our Sydney Marine Park would be a world first as the only marine park in the world to be based around a major city. It will help protect the environmental, social and economic future of Sydney's waters. Can you please let me know what you are doing to support the creation of a Sydney Marine Park? Conserving our oceans will benefit us all now and for the future - Blue is the new Green. Yours sincerely, [your name, email address and postal address will be inserted from the form below]
