dc.descriptionThis report evaluates the environmental and socio-economic challenges facing Greenland's marine and coastal ecosystems, focusing on three key regions: Arctic Greenland, the East Greenland Shelf, and the West Greenland Shelf. Produced under the Global International Waters Assessment initiative by UNEP, the document highlights critical issues such as chemical pollution from long-range transport, overexploitation of marine resources, and habitat modifications driven by climate change. It provides detailed analyses of immediate and root causes, including inadequate fisheries management, industrial emissions from distant sources, and the impacts of global warming on Arctic ecosystems. The report also outlines policy recommendations to address these challenges, emphasizing international cooperation, ecosystem-based management, and sustainable practices.en
