Since the late 1970s Australia has established a variety of mechanisms for involving the community in the planning and management of the marine environment. During this period there has been an increasing understanding and awareness of both marine conservation and pollution issues. This is evidenced by the community’s support for conservation measures such as the Great Barrier Reef Marine Park and the cessation of commercial whaling, and the growing concern about ocean dumping of sewage, land-based sources of marine pollution, and the threat of oil and chemical pollution from shipping accidents or offshore oil production platforms.
