C\u00e1ceres Chamorro discussed threats to sea turtles including incidental capture from trawling gillnets and longline fishery, habitat loss like beach erosion on nesting beaches, and global climate change and pollution impacting turtle populations. She emphasized the need for international collaboration to protect the sea turtles that maintain healthy coral reefs and oceans and support the economies of nearby human communities in areas like the Caribbean.<\/p>\n

“At the end of the day, sea turtles connect us. They visit a lot of countries and it’s our responsibility to protect them,” said C\u00e1ceres Chamorro.<\/p>\n

The Inter-American Convention, which emphasizes a cooperative, non confrontational approach to resolving the problems that sea turtles face, includes 15 countries representing North, Central and South America.<\/p>\n

“We believe that working with the younger generation will really make a difference,”\u00a0C\u00e1ceres Chamorro told the law students attending her talk.<\/p>\n

<\/strong>C\u00e1ceres Chamorro’s talk, \u201cMaking Connections to Protect Sea Turtles and Their Habitats: The Inter-American Convention for the Protection and Conservation of Sea Turtles,\u201d was part of Stetson\u2019s Edward and Bonnie Foreman Biodiversity Lecture Series.<\/p>\n

The ongoing public lecture series, co-sponsored by Stetson\u2019s Institute for Biodiversity Law and Policy<\/a>, brings leading experts to campus to speak on a range of environmental topics.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
