Summary

Te Ao Tūroa helps us to care for all coastal and aquatic ecosystems through active kaitiakitanga practice and precautionary, adaptive, integrated stewardship. Doing all we can to support a naturally regenerating ocean is essential to protect its health, provide for us, and assist climate stability. The Green Party will promote Te Tiriti-based governance of the seas of Aotearoa New Zealand to regenerate mauri, prevent damage from human activities, increase resilience to climate change, and support the thriving marine ecosystems that underpin a healthy, well-managed blue economy.
