The efforts in restoring the Chesapeake Bay also has importance on economic value. The Chesapeake bay is a commercial and recreational resource for more than 15 million people who live in and near its watershed (drainage basin).” (Atkins & Anderson, 2003). According to the Chesapeake Bay foundation, also known as the CBF; in 2004, the Virginia Institute of Marine Science conducted an study estimated that the Chesapeake Bay contributed $1.23 billion in sales, $717 million in income, and nearly more than 13,000 jobs in Virginia from recreational and commercial fishing

These strategies are sustainable and appropriate however more immediate action should be taken based on visitors’ opinions and beliefs. Coastal management strategies are simply requirement strategies like council clean ups, and does not include necessary updates and improvements in facilities and stores. This beach is lacking in short and long term major improvement plans as it’s an undervalued beach in contrast to more populated beaches. Councils and governments are putting off major plans for a small town beach which is the reason for its slow upgrade time period and lack of serious management.

This report will discuss the beach of Glenelg on the coast of South Australia. Aspects that will be elaborated on are the history of Glenelg, the location, natural processes that affect Glenelg, human impact at Glenelg, stakeholders in Glenelg, summary of management strategies that have been employed in the past and an evaluation of strategies that could be considered for the future management for Glenelg.

Economic activity and our environment have been closely linked since man first discovered the concept of trade. In the language of economics, the environment has itself, become an increasingly “scarce resource1”. Since economics is about managing these scarce resources, it will be a useful tool when considering some of the environmental issues facing our planet. One of the major concerns confronting the environment today is the overfishing of the world’s oceans, depleting some species to near extinction. With continued advances in technological and industrial proficiency, fishing vessels are able to fish across the globe, further exacerbating the effects of overfishing. Because the oceans are considered a shared or common

Coastal Management in Hastings is effective economically, socially, environmentally and is sustainable for the future.

The oceans need to be protected because it is where life began and if not taken care of, life as we know it will end. The well-being of the ocean is constantly being threatened and needs to stop. When dangerous substances go into the ocean, ecosystems suffer and become endangered along with the lives of people and marine life. The importance of protecting and preserving the quality and biodiversity of the world 's coasts must be recognized because they are truly irreplaceable. If humans are not educated , and become careless about what is thrown on the ground or sprayed on lawns, disastrous effects follow when it comes to the condition of the ocean’s ecosystems, which can endanger life itself, leading to a problem only we can correct. There is historical evidence of ocean pollution, although the problem still shadows us today.

It is understood that there is not just one problem causing the dead zone in the bay. Two main contributors are the focus. Details are presented on the problems brought to the bay by agriculture, and development. The language is easy to understand and the scientific and environmental message is conveyed in a way that can be followed.

period of time have increased the size of the beach. Enviromental organisations have tried there best to limit the amount of man made deveoplment on coastal lads and many schools

The goal of harbor management businesses like Port Everglades is to have a management team that establishes goals with accompanying strategies for implementation. Among all the ports in the state of Florida, the port of Everglades has one of the richest histories and is considered the third largest in the world (Barth, 2015, p. 1). The goals and strategies are directed toward achieving balance among a number of equally important public purposes, including protection and enhancement of environmental resources and the quality of life associated with the use of the harbors, surface waters and underwater lands of the state within a city, town, village, or country.

There are many economical problems due to the dead zone ranging from fisheries going out of business to illnesses. The economical problems have paid their toll on nearby fishers whom in total have paid over 10 billion US dollars to repair the problem. Sadly though, no matter how much they pay, the problem is still on going. The gulf’s massive fishing industry is trying to focus its efforts on the parts that have been affected in an attempt to save their sea. According to many sources, EPA views this problem as unimportant and hasn’t helped yet. The reason that it is so hard to come to an agreement is because there is no solution that pleases everyone. Right now the farmers up north of the gulf are having an easy time because of easy and cheap waste disposal while downstream the fishers are

Peoples opinions, perspectives, and feelings are the driving components that can be used to example a person’s behaviour and action. Stakeholders have both an independent individual idea, but also have an overall arching collective obligations that are created within government to improve society as a whole. DFO employees have a federal role in the government with the job of managing fisheries and safeguarding its waters. DFO has three main objectives to increase economic growth, expand aquaculture, and manage Canadian oceans by protecting habitat and doing research on the ecosystem. DFO’s work is directed by following five main laws which includes the Ocean Act, the Fisheries Act, the Species at Risk Act, the Coastal Fisheries Protection Act and the Canada Shipping Act, 2001. DFO’s interest and conceptions of tidal

Local officials and many other residents in the area appear to be concerned about both the sea's environmental problems and its economic benefits. According to (McClurg, 1994) “The Sea needs to have somewhere to go, if the sea had an outlet, it would gradually reduce the salinity of its waters. In addition, the outlet might allow water officials to have greater control over the sea's elevation, which, in turn, could help prevent future flooding

The erosion of shorelines is a natural process that can have beneficial or adverse impacts on the creation and maintenance of habitats. Sands and gravels eroded from the shores of coastal bays maintain the beach as a natural barrier between the open water and coastal wetlands. Beaches move back and forth onshore, offshore and along shore with changing wave conditions. The finer-grained silts and clays derived from the erosion of shorelines are sorted and carried as far as the waters of wetlands or tidal flats, where benefits are derived from addition of the new material. However, excessively high sediment loads can smother submerged aquatic vegetation beds, cover shellfish beds and tidal flats, fill in riffle

There were two events that dominates the world news during the second quarter of 2010 which are Deepwater Horizon oil spill and an Israeli defense forces commando raided a seven-ship organized by a Turkish non-governmental organization. The two incidents are linked by their maritime location. Both of the events have occurred outside the territorial waters of their coastal states but inside their exclusive economic zones. In the case of Deepwater horizon incident, although the rig was operated by a Swiss company on behalf of a British petrochemical giant, was working under a lease from a US Minerals Management services. It is an agency within the US Department of interior. Sixteen thousand total miles of coastline has been affected.
