Invention

Invention is a long-term strategy that creates innovative technologies, model systems, new values, and modified social relationships that, in turn, generate more effective responses and complete solutions to critical problems. New and renewable energy options, carbon taxes and cap and trade schemes, marine spatial planning, ecosystems services analysis, regional management agreements, and plans and policies for ocean resources beyond national jurisdictions are just some of the fresh concepts being studied and implemented to sustain both ocean and climate.
