For 40 years, Australia has hosted the Commission for the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources, known as CCAMLR. We're working with all 27 members of CCAMLR to establish a representative network of Marine Protected Areas around #Antarctica: to protect marine species and the habitats where they live, feed, and breed. | Australian Antarctic Program | Facebook
