Question

Answer in detail:

Discuss how the development of oceanic tourism should be carried out without disturbing marine life.

Answer 1

It is difficult to clean up mass pollution once it has occurred, so the best plan is prevention. Several changes can take place to help keep the industry in check and encourage sustainable practices such as:

1. Stricter government regulations on industry and manufacturing is one large scale solution. There are several laws to help protect beaches, reduce pollution from ships, reduce marine debris, and prohibit ocean dumping.
2. Implement renewable energy sources, such as wind or solar power, to limit off-shore drilling.
3. Limit agricultural pesticides and encourage organic farming and eco-friendly pesticide use.
4. Proper sewage treatment and exploration of eco-friendly wastewater treatment options, such as recycling sewage sludge to carbon-phosphorous fertilizer, are other solutions.
5. Cut down on the industry and manufacturing waste and contain landfills so they do not spill into the ocean.
