Protect Marine Sanctuaries

We need this same thing for the Arctic Ocean as well. They are all just chomping at the bit for more of the sea ice to melt so that they can open it to shipping. So that tankers carrying everything from food to oil, can navigate the northern route. And then what happens when the inevitable occurs - tankers run aground. 

Environment over profit; sure would be nice, but are the leaders there yet? I don't have a lot of faith that they are. 

We absolutely need marine park sanctuaries to allow fish stocks and the entire ecosystem to recover from overfishing.
