/The ocean is a contested space that serves both human and animal interests; it is a hub for industry; a wealth making resource; a home to marine animals; a food basket; a dumping ground; and a site of concern regarding climate change and global warming. Never before has there been so much debate from the public realm to the political arena over such topical issues as curbing CO2 emissions, the threat of mass extinction and the loss of ocean habitats. /
