Pew Outlines How NOAA Can Plan for Changing Oceans

The letter encouraged NOAA to advance comprehensive, ecosystem-based resource management, using the best available science, to help endangered species recover and to ensure sustainable fisheries and healthy coastal and marine habitats in the face of a rapidly changing ocean environment.
