Life Below Water de Walter Leal Filho

Life Below Water: Encyclopedia of the UN Sustainable Development Goals

Editat de Walter Leal Filho, Anabela Marisa Azul, Luciana Brandli, Amanda Lange Salvia, Tony Wall
en Limba Engleză Hardback – 27 apr 2022

Evoluția managementului resurselor marine a trecut în ultimul deceniu de la politici izolate de conservare la un cadru global integrat, dictat de Agenda 2030 a Națiunilor Unite. Life Below Water reflectă această schimbare de paradigmă, fiind o lucrare de referință ce documentează eforturile de atingere a Obiectivului de Dezvoltare Durabilă 14. Suntem de părere că această enciclopedie de 1000 de pagini reprezintă cel mai ambițios efort editorial de până acum în domeniu, oferind o claritate terminologică și științifică esențială pentru cercetători și decidenți. Comparabil cu The Marine Environment and United Nations Sustainable Development Goal 14 în rigurozitate, volumul de față se distinge prin abordarea enciclopedică mult mai vastă, fiind actualizat pentru noile provocări apărute după 2020 în guvernanța oceanică. Structura volumului este organizată tematic, facilitând accesul rapid la subiecte complexe, de la adaptarea la creșterea nivelului mării la poluarea cu nutrienți și microplastice. Progresia conținutului, vizibilă încă din cuprins, trece de la fenomene globale precum acidificarea oceanelor la studii de caz specifice privind pescuitul artizanal și acvacultura. Walter Leal Filho poziționează această lucrare ca un pilon central în opera sa vastă, continuând direcția începută în Handbook of Sustainability Science in the Future. Dacă lucrările sale anterioare explorau competențele generale pentru dezvoltare durabilă, acest volum din Encyclopedia of the UN Sustainable Development Goals livrează date tehnice și soluții integrate pentru protejarea resurselor marine. Recomandăm lucrarea pentru rigoarea cu care tratează intersecția dintre creșterea economică și protecția ecosistemelor costiere.

De ce să citești această carte

Recomandăm acest volum specialiștilor în politici de mediu și studenților la științe marine care au nevoie de o bază de date exhaustivă despre ODD 14. Cititorul câștigă o înțelegere profundă a legislației internaționale a mării și a soluțiilor tehnice pentru combaterea poluării. Este un instrument indispensabil pentru oricine dorește să implementeze strategii de sustenabilitate ancorate în realitățile științifice ale deceniului actual.

Despre autor

Walter Leal Filho este o figură centrală în cercetarea sustenabilității globale, predând la Hamburg Technical University. Expertiza sa este vastă, coordonând numeroase proiecte internaționale de educație ecologică și deținând rolul de editor al European Environmental Education Newsletter. În cadrul editurii Springer, a coordonat serii monumentale dedicate dezvoltării durabile, axându-se pe soluții practice pentru problemele generate de industrializarea accelerată și schimbările climatice. Opera sa include titluri de referință precum Clean Water and Sanitation și Handbook of Human and Planetary Health, consolidându-i statutul de lider de opinie în implementarea Agendei 2030.

Descriere scurtă

The problems related to the process of industrialisation such as biodiversity depletion, climate change and a worsening of health and living conditions, especially but not only in developing countries, intensify. Therefore, there is an increasing need to search for integrated solutions to make development more sustainable. The United Nations has acknowledged the problem and approved the “2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development”. On 1st January 2016, the 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) of the Agenda officially came into force. These goals cover the three dimensions of sustainable development: economic growth, social inclusion and environmental protection.  
The Encyclopedia of the UN Sustainable Development Goals comprehensively addresses the SDGs in an integrated way. It  encompasses 17 volumes, each one devoted to one of the 17 SDGs. This volume is dedicated to SDG 14 “Conserve and sustainably use the oceans, seas and marine resources for sustainable development". Marine and coastal bio-resources, play an essential role in human well-being and social and economic development. This volume addresses this sustainability challenge providing the description of a range of terms, which allows a better understanding and fosters knowledge about it.

Concretely, the defined targets are:
  • Prevent and significantly reduce marine pollution of all kinds, in particular from land-based activities, including marine debris and nutrient pollution
  • Sustainably manage and protect marine and coastal ecosystems to avoid significant adverse impacts, including by strengthening their resilience, and take action for their restoration in order to achieve healthy and productive oceans
  • Minimize and address the impacts of ocean acidification, including through enhanced scientific cooperation at all levels
  • Effectively regulate harvesting and end overfishing, illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing and destructive fishing practices and implement science-based management plans, in order to restore fish stocks in the shortest time feasible, at least to levels that can produce maximum sustainable yield as determined by their biological characteristics
  • Conserve at least 10 per cent of coastal and marine areas, consistent with national and international law and based on the best available scientific information
  • Prohibit certain forms of fisheries subsidies which contribute to overcapacity and overfishing, eliminate subsidies that contribute to illegal, unreported and unregulated fishing and refrain from introducing new such subsidies, recognizing that appropriate and effective special and differential treatment for developing and least developed countries should be an integral part of the World Trade Organization fisheries subsidies negotiation 16
  • Increase the economic benefits to small island developing states and least developed countries from the sustainable use of marine resources, including through sustainable management of fisheries, aquaculture and tourism 
  • Increase scientific knowledge, develop research capacity and transfer marine technology, taking into account the Intergovernmental Oceanographic Commission Criteria and Guidelines on the Transfer of Marine Technology, in order to improve ocean health and to enhance the contribution of marine biodiversity to the development of developing countries, in particular small island developing states and least developed countries
  • Provide access for small-scale artisanal fishers to marine resources and markets
  • Enhance the conservation and sustainable use of oceans and their resources by implementing international law as reflected in the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, which provides the legal framework for the conservation and sustainable use of oceans and their resources, as recalled in paragraph 158 of “The future we want”
