After 25 years of good news propaganda, while unaware of changing circumstances, proponents of marine reserves have spread disinformation, exaggerating the actual benefits of marine reserves while hiding bad news. Now most people, being uninformed about how different the sea is from the land, have strong beliefs which they use to bring harm to others for no benefit in return. Through the United Nations, all nations are pressured to lock up a substantial part of the sea, for little or no benefit. This section aims to redress the arguments, not to discredit people but to remove myths and fallacies from the marine reserves debate. Only through truth will we be able to save the sea for future generations.
