Greece and the Sea

 

Greece has always had a special relationship to the sea.  There are over 2000 islands in Greece, 170 are inhabited.  There is no place in Greece that you are over 85 miles from the sea.  The great seas that surround Greece are directly linked to their wellbeing and their economy.  They provide fishing, transportation, tourism and a way of life.  They seem concerned about the health of the seas.  The prime minister wisely states; “the environmental problems we are about to face are not someone else’s concern, but our own”.
