Endangered Species and Fragile Ecosystems in the South China Sea

This book presents an in-depth analysis of the environmental issues raised in the South China Sea Arbitration Awards, which have not attracted as much attention in the Philippines as the “nine-dash line”. Specifically it focuses on the conservation of endangered species and the conservation of fragile ecosystems in the South China Sea.   The aims of the book are two-fold. First, it seeks to explain the Philippine perspective on the environmental aspects of its dispute with China.
