While all four oceans have suffered as a result of human consequence for over millennia by now, it has accelerated in the past few decades. Oil spills, toxic wastes, floating plastic and various other factors have all contributed to the pollution of the ocean. Ocean pollution not only hurts the ocean ecosystem but also the human food chain and various economies. In recent years, initiatives have been launched in various countries to try to restore and protect the oceans. Where are those programs and projects and how can modern project management contribute to these efforts? This section of the PM World Library is intended to provide access to a few resources for those who want to learn more or help.
