It is considered as the wealth of nature by the nature lovers.As per the report, the proposal regarding the Ross Sea was presented before the house by the United States and New Zealand.Notably, the proposal highlighting the importance of protecting the sensitive region was passed unanimously.Anyway, some suggested that the authorities should allow a special fishing zone in the region for the research purpose.
Now, the region became the biggest protected area in the land or in the sea.
