Conservation

The oceans cover 71% of our planet’s surface. They are important because they influence the atmosphere’s chemical and physical processes, regulating climate and the cycling of elements like carbon, oxygen and phosphorus, among others. They also provide us with food and thus have acquired an economic, social and cultural importance.

At present, the marine ecosystems (coral reefs, mangroves, coastal dunes and deep sea) are being altered and affected by different processes, caused mainly by the over-exploitation of resources and the impact generated by human activities.

At the Interactive Aquarium Cancun, we teach our visitors about marine conservation and five of the main threats to these ecosystems. You can learn more about them here and about the actions we can take to mitigate their effect.
