How Belize Is Fighting To Save Its Ocean

Some friends of mine visited Belize a few months ago. They came back very frustrated from all the rules they faced to keep them away from natural reserves, especially when it came to diving.

That what solutions journalism is about: reporting on a response to a problem. It is never perfect, it has caveats, risks, and limitations. We don't even know if it will last.

But when looking for ways to solve a problem, it is useful to know: who is doing better facing that same problem?

The poor state of the ocean today is anyone's problem. What if Belize had a good response to it, despite tourists' frustrations? And what if we could all benefit from Belize's experiment? This is a story of change, and the impact it is producing.
