The Economics of High Seas Protection
The growing exploitation of fish on the high seas has raised concerns due to by-catch of threatened species, habitat destruction, and overexploitation of commercially important pelagic species, such as tuna. High-seas fisheries can also impact coastal fleets, as many species targeted on the high seas are straddling stocks, spending part of their lives in coastal waters, meaning poor management of the high seas can have widespread consequences.

A BLUE Vision for the High Seas
“Much of our planet lies beyond the control of nation states and their laws. These international waters, commonly known as the high seas, cover a vast swath of ocean that takes in 43% of the surface of the planet. Their average depth is greater than 4 km and when this third dimension is accounted for, they occupy a breathtaking 70% of the living space on earth.” Professor Callum Roberts
