/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. /
