A different approach to climate change
The Nature Conservancy has made a deal with the government of the Seychelles Island to attack the problems of the ocean due to climate change. The Conservancy has given the Seychelles $21,000,000 and assumed 5% of the country's debt. The agreement calls for the government to protect 30% of its national waters. One way they are doing this is by controlling fishing. In many areas the people can fish in the local bay for only six months of the year. In other areas, tourism, as well as fishing, is restricted. The country's military and police forces are monitoring the situation.
