DoomsdaysCWThe U.S. gets a new national <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/MarineSanctuary" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#MarineSanctuary</a>, the first led by a tribe By Lauren Sommer Published October 14, 2024"More than 4,500 square miles of ocean will soon be protected by the federal government off the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/CentralCalifornia" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#CentralCalifornia</a> coast. The <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/Biden" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#Biden</a> administration is creating a new national marine sanctuary, which will be the third largest in the U.S."The sanctuary is also the first to be led by <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/IndigenousPeople" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#IndigenousPeople</a>. It was nominated by members of the <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/NorthernChumashTribe" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#NorthernChumashTribe</a>, who drove the effort for more than decade to protect the rugged <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/coastline" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#coastline</a> that is their historical homeland."Going forward, the new <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ChumashHeritage" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#ChumashHeritage</a> National Marine Sanctuary will be managed in partnership with tribes and I#ndigenous groups in the area, who will advise the federal government. It marks a growing movement under the Biden administration to give tribes a say over the lands and waters that were taken from them."'We’re still here, and so are the Indigenous people wherever you live,' says <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/VioletSageWalker" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#VioletSageWalker</a>, chairwoman of the Northern Chumash Tribal Council, who led the campaign for the sanctuary. 'Being able to address <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ClimateChange" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#ClimateChange</a>, use traditional <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ecological" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#ecological</a> knowledge, and participate in <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/comanagement" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#comanagement</a> is Indigenous peoples’ contribution to saving the planet.'"The final sanctuary boundaries are smaller than originally proposed due to California’s burgeoning <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/OffshoreWind" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#OffshoreWind</a> industry. The National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA) says it plans to look at expanding the sanctuary in the future."National marine sanctuaries are similar to a national forest on land. The new sanctuary will be protected from oil and gas <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/drilling" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#drilling</a>, as well as <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/UnderseaMining" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#UnderseaMining</a>, while <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/fishing" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#fishing</a> is still permitted. It also means more public outreach and monitoring for environmental impacts, something NOAA says is vital to understanding how the ecosystem is being affected by climate change."Read more / listen: <a href="https://www.interlochenpublicradio.org/2024-10-14/the-u-s-gets-a-new-national-marine-sanctuary-the-first-led-by-a-tribe" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no">https://www.interlochenpublicradio.org/2024-10-14/the-u-s-gets-a-new-national-marine-sanctuary-the-first-led-by-a-tribe</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LandBack" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#LandBack</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/IndigenousNews" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#IndigenousNews</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/IndigenousPeoplesDay" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#IndigenousPeoplesDay</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/TraditionalKnowledge" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#TraditionalKnowledge</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/TraditionalCaretakers" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#TraditionalCaretakers</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/ProtectTheSacred" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#ProtectTheSacred</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WaterIsLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#WaterIsLife</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/OceansAreLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#OceansAreLife</a>

When UNCLOS was initially signed in 1982, the Reagan administration refused to accede based on disagreements regarding deep seabed mining. Despite revisions to the treaty in 1994, the Senate refused to hold hearings on the matter. Although Senator Richard Lugar of Indiana finally held hearings in 2004 and the Senate Foreign Relations Committee unanimously recommended adopting the treaty, no further action was taken by the Senate."<a href="https://hir.harvard.edu/hypocri-sea-the-united-states-failure-to-join-the-un-convention-on-the-law-of-the-sea-2/" target="_blank" rel="nofollow noopener noreferrer" translate="no">https://hir.harvard.edu/hypocri-sea-the-united-states-failure-to-join-the-un-convention-on-the-law-of-the-sea-2/</a><a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/WaterIsLife" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#WaterIsLife</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LawOfTheSeaConvention" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#LawOfTheSeaConvention</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/LawOfTheSea" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#LawOfTheSea</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/UnderseaMining" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#UnderseaMining</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/UNConventionLawOfTheSea" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#UNConventionLawOfTheSea</a> <a href="https://kolektiva.social/tags/UNCLOS" class="mention hashtag" rel="tag">#UNCLOS</a>
