Sanctuary


























A fisherman, a member of a village association, takes his turn watching over a 2-hectare locally-managed marine sanctuary. Overfishing by commercial vessels and destructive compressor-based fishing wrought havoc on the fragile ecosystem for decades. The village association has deputized enforcers, on guard to discourage fishing activity inside the sanctuary. Marine sanctuaries are typically "no-take" zones, to allow biomass to regenerate.
