Most of the world dismisses developing countries, it seems like nothing can come out of them. But most times, it is the third world countries that show the way. The article says that In Jamaica, more than a dozen grassroots-run coral nurseries and fish sanctuaries have sprung up in the past decade, supported by small grants from foundations, local businesses such as hotels and scuba clinics, and the Jamaican government.
It ultimately is about giving back in equal if not more of a measure than what you take from nature. And conserving that what provides for your living means taking care of it and not stressing it out. Most of the Earth’s resources are under great stress.
