The Building of Marine Ecological Civilization and Sustainable Development: Conference report

Marine ecological environment plays a vital role in the development of human society. However, the current state of marine ecological environment protection is not satisfactory. Effective measures at the national, regional and international levels should be taken in order to deal with various marine environmental issues. In June 2019, the Marine Environment Law Committee of the China Association for Environment and Resources Law of the China Law Society and Zhejiang Ocean University organized a conference entitled 'The Building of Marine Ecological Civilization and Sustainable Development' to discuss related issues in this regard. This report provides a summary of the key issues discussed at the conference which may help to have a better understanding of marine ecological environment protection.
