The modern answer to this problem can be protected marine areas. Today is protected only 4% of the total sea area of the Mediterranean Sea. There is hope for improvement because the international Convention on Biological Diversity obliges to increase marine protected areas to 10% by 2020. These parts must be separated by their ecological importance. Allow the preservation of the area, encouraging the local community economy, the sustainability of fish stocks and the economy of the community.
