Figure 1: Ten actions that can substantially reduce the amount of
pollution entering the marine environment. Actions are placed along the
system at where they could have the greatest impact at reducing
pollution: at the source of the pollutant (at the source), once the
pollutant is released (along the way), once the pollutant has entered
the Ocean (at the sink) or at multiple points along the system (bottom
arrow). * indicates actions that could be successfully implemented
before the next decade to significantly reduce pollution.
