Report indicates Indias shores danger zone for turtles
A recent study by an environmental group, the International Union for the Conservation of Nature, has identified the 11 most threatened sea turtle populations from around the world. And five of these so-called danger zones for sea turtles are in the Exclusive Economic Zones (EEZs) of India, Sri Lanka and Bangladesh. The Olive Ridley and Hawksbill turtles, which nest on Indian shores, are an endangered species and there was a drive by environmentalists against the poaching and killing of these sea reptiles. The study also reveals that the turtles face other dangers. âThe most significant threats across all of the threatened populations are fisheries bycatch, the accidental catch of sea turtles by fishermen targeting other species and direct harvest of turtles or their eggs for food or turtle shell material for commercial use, the report said. This report may need to be taken seriously by Indiaâs environmental bodies. While some high visibility animal projects like those for tigers in India have gained some success, the same cannot be said of any drive to preserve or sustain marine life on Indiaâs coastlines. Poaching and killing of protected wildlife is known to be rampant on Indiaâs shores. And perhaps environmental officials canât do much along with the Coast Guard, given there may be bigger threats like smuggling and militant infiltration through the sea. But something needs to be done and fast. In spite of repeated warnings by wildlife activists, reports like these expose Indiaâs position and lack of seriousness in tackling marine pollution, unchecked fishing and poaching, and protection of marine life.

You have 10-20 seconds to communicate brand messages
amplify.comUsers often leave Web pages in 10–20 seconds, ao your web pages need to communicate a clear value proposition. As users rush through Web pages, they have time to read only a quarter of the text on the pages they actually visit (let alone all those they don’t). So, unless your writing is extraordinarily clear and focused, little of what you say on your website will get through to customers. This is why you need a professional to write content as well design your landing pages.
