Another example is article 194 of UNCLOS (Measures to prevent, reduce and control pollution of the marine environment) and, in particular, its paragraph 3 (a), concerning pollution of land based sources.

There is growing awareness in the region of the impact of land based sources of marine pollution, which is estimated to be responsible for about 80 per cent of all pollution entering the oceans.

Moreover they shall endeavour to contribute to reducing the pollution loads of the Black Sea from sources in the catchment area.

Core causes of water sources pollution are related to human activities, such as dumping liquid waste materials from industry and communities.

342. A SPREP UNEP project, known as the Regional Marine Pollution Monitoring and Research Project (SPREP POL), has prepared an inventory of sources of land based pollution in the region. Experts from academic and other institutions of the countries of the region, including the University of the South Pacific, have undertaken specific studies in several South Pacific nations, culminating in a major regional report on land based sources of pollution.

94. Pollution of the land, sea and air from various sources causes major risks to the life, health and well being of populations.

Meanwhile, pollution (from industry, agriculture and in some cases from the mass disposal of faeces into the environment) threatens previously safe water sources.

The meeting also agreed on the deletion of a number of hot spots from the list of most significant pollution sources in the Baltic Sea.

However, activities under the Assessment and Management of Environmental Pollution subprogramme (including the Land based Sources of Marine Pollution Protocol) and those that promote the implementation of the Specially Protected Areas and Wildlife Protocol are directly related to marine litter.

One addition to the above is the Clearing House for Information on the Global Programme of Action relating to Land Based Sources of Marine Pollution.

20. The project on Environmental Monitoring and Analysis in the East Asian Region monitors land based sources of pollution in food, water and air.

Noting the problem of marine pollution caused, inter alia, by land based sources and the continuing threat of pollution from ship generated waste and sewage as well as from the accidental release of hazardous and noxious substances in the Caribbean Sea area,

Transboundary pollution issues are among the top priority concerns in 20 of the subregions, the most prevalent sources of pollution are agricultural runoff and industrial and municipal discharges, while unsustainable use of freshwater and living resources also score high on the priority list.

So, solving the problem of pollution with more pollution.

It has long been recognized that one of the most serious and extensive threats to the health of the marine ecosystem is pollution from land based sources.

The Republic of Korea is also continuing to implement measures to protect the marine environment by preventing or reducing pollution from vessels and land based sources.

From the regional causal chain analysis, it appears that agricultural run off and municipal and industrial discharges are the most prevalent pollution sources.

elaborate inventories on relevant point sources including the pollutants discharged (emission inventories) and estimate the water pollution from non point sources taking into account Annex II, Part 2 review these documents according to the actual state.

But China s rulers know that this situation is unsustainable. Not only is air pollution a growing source of concern, but diversification of energy sources is a crucial national security interest.

266. Land based sources are responsible for most of the pollution of the oceans and affect the most productive areas of the marine environment. Article 207 of UNCLOS requires States to adopt laws and regulations to prevent, reduce and control pollution from land based sources and to endeavour to establish global and regional rules, standards and recommended practices and procedures, acting especially through competent international organizations and diplomatic conferences.

According to Iraq, there are many other potential sources of oil pollution in the Gulf that can equally well, or even better, explain the presence of oil on the Iranian coast.

106. Moreover, the pollution resulting from industrialization and the use of certain substances is leading to the destruction of all forms of animal and plant life and consequently of all sources of food.

pollution.

Now another form of pollution that's biological pollution is what happens from excess nutrients.

Concerned that marine pollution from all sources, including vessels and, in particular, land based sources, constitutes a serious threat to human health and safety, endangers fish stocks, marine biodiversity and marine habitats and has significant costs to local and national economies,

380. In June 1998, the Caribbean Environment Programme (CEP) convened the Third Meeting of the Contracting Parties to the Cartagena Convention to negotiate a protocol on land based sources of marine pollution.

5. Calls upon all relevant States to take the necessary steps to bring into force, and to support the implementation of, the Protocol Concerning Pollution from Land based Sources and Activities,See www.cep.unep.org law. in order to protect the marine environment of the Caribbean Sea from land based pollution and degradation

We have to come to grips with the reality that the ocean apos s bounty is finite and that the ocean is not a bottomless receptacle of human waste and pollution. Pollution of the seas from land based sources remains a daunting problem. However, effective implementation of the Washington Global Programme of Action will certainly bring about much improvement in this respect. Pollution by persistent organic pollutants is another major concern.

Groundwater pollution is interrelated with the pollution of other environmental media (surface water, soils, atmosphere).
