Abstract
For Australia, marine biodiversity is a significant resource. Our sustainable development is inherently linked with the health of our oceans, which are facing major threats related to climate change, pollution and over-fishing. As the world’s population continues to increase, so too does the demand for food, as well as employment, from the ocean’s resources. The solution is to protect the marine environment while maximising its resources through a sustainable marine biotechnology industry that provides not only food, but economic prosperity, as well.
