The global ocean refuge system: saving marine species from mass extinction
Abstract
Humans are causing accelerating biodiversity loss on a global scale, threatening our own existence, challenging us to stop this existential threat before it’s too late. The Global Ocean Refuge System (GLORES)—a new in–situ analogue of the Global Seed Vault in Svalbard—is a strategic way to maintain the self–assembling ingredients (genes, species and ecosystems) in humankind&rsquos largest life support system; the sea.
