Will I get any marks at all though?


So yes you would get the marks because you either used a local or national/global action.

What did people put for the 8 markquestion on extreme environments?
and also, for the managment of the biosphere,i talked about 3 strategies (CITIES, national parks, ramsar) none of them were in alot of detail as i just stated what all of them protect, however realised now rhat i was only supposed to talk about one managment in detail:frown: will i still get credited for it or not?

Yeah you will get credited as they are all relevant. What did you put for the one marker on rivers.

I wrote about MARPOL who ensure that ships are designed better in order to limit oil spillage leaks. I also talked about MPAs which create fish nurseries which stops fishing and recreational use in this areas. Which allows more juvenile fish to reproduce as they are not being fished. I also mentioned the Law of the Sea which decreases the amount of ships entering certain oceans.


How many marks do you think I would get for talking about Soufriere bay then a bit about international whaling laws then a bit about litter in the north pacific and that no one will take responsibility for it

I talked about levees and dams and how the success of them relies upon the weather systems of that country.

But I thought national was different to global..

As long as you gave an example it would be fine.

Same here, I don't understand how can you talk about one in so much detail.

I think if they're being lenient then they would allow Ramsar/cites because it did specifically say national or local and I was on the verge of doing a global one too but I read the question again
