Conservation Week 2022 Colouring In Competition

Here at EMR our favourite conservation tool are marine reserves! Marine reserves are special places which are completely protected from human impacts and act as a refuge from the sea surface to the sea floor. They also benefit non-protected regions through spillover, whereby animals will swim or move out of the marine reserve boundary and help support the recovery of non-protected areas!
