Sustentabilidade


Sustainable development

Brundtland Report (1987)

“Development that meets the needs of thepresent without compromising the ability offuture generations to meet their own needs”

Sustentabilidade


Sustentabilidade


Ecosystem-based management

Emerging paradigm of ocean management that has been promoted worldwide as the best way to ensure sustainability of marine ecosystems goods and services Katsanevakis et al (2011)

Sustentabilidade


Ecosystem-based management

IntegratedPlace-basedFocuses on specific ecosystemRecognizes existing connectivity among all of its elements, including humansAims for sustainability

Arkema et al (2006)

Sustentabilidade


EU maritime policy initiatives have continuously emphasized importance of progressing towards EBM implementation and achieving a sustainable use of marine and coastal ecosystems

Sustentabilidade


MSP recognized as a tool/approach with high potential to contribute tosustainable use of the oceans

Sustentabilidade


“Public process of analyzing and allocating thespatial and temporal distribution of humanactivities in marine areas to achieve ecological,economic, and social objectives that are usuallyspecified through a political process”Ehler & Douvere (2009) MSP step-by-step

Sustentabilidade


Key question for the long-term adequacy of MSP is how it is actually addressing sustainability

Based on hard or soft sustainability concepts?

Prioritizes ecosystems conservation, or Blue Growth?

Sustentabilidade


Ecosystem-based MSP Integrated-use MSPEcosystem conservation

Hard sustainabilityBlue growth

Soft sustainability

Sustentabilidade


Marine goods and services (natural capital) are the basis or foundation for MSP, and are not interchangeable with other types of capital

Sustentabilidade


… socioeconomic sectors that depend on them are expected to collapse as well

Sustentabilidade


Environmental economics Strong sustainability

A socio-ecological system's overall utility (U) results from the sum of its natural capital (N), man-made capital (K) and human capital (L). Hard sustainability requires that U increases over time and that N never decrease

Sustentabilidade


Ecosystem conservation is just one sector/pillar upon which MSP builds (others are fisheries, energy, tourism…) and the ultimate goal is to foster sustainable blue growth

Sustentabilidade


If some pillars collapse, the system can still be maintained

Sustentabilidade


Environmental economics Weak sustainability

Soft sustainability also requires U to increase, but allows for trade-offs among N, K and L

Sustentabilidade


Concepts become equivalent as N’s value becomes infinite

Sustentabilidade


Ecosystem-based MSP

Many advocate that MSP “has its roots in marine nature conservation”, as an extension of marine protected areas establishment (e.g. Australian Great Barrier Reef Marine Park) and as a practical way to address broader concerns on biodiversity conservation (e.g. the goals of the Rio+20 United Nations Conference on Sustainable Development)

Or that although MSP was not “created explicitly for conservation or protection” it does catalyze environmental sustainability, by fostering the allocation of areas for conservation

Sustentabilidade


However “as MSP spread, the focus on ecosystem-based management and stewardship became diluted”. This “shift” in MSP drivers seems to have occurred due to an increasing need to manage conflicting (existing and future) maritime uses, especially in highly industrial maritime areas

Key points from the EU-funded MESMA project highlight that “MSP in the case studies was intended to provide for, or at least not obstruct, strategically important infrastructure development projects”. In accordance, most national follow this integrated approach

Integrated-use MSP
