What protects Antarctica?

In 1959 was the Treaty of Antarctica, which was developed by the United Nations and with the help of 12 other countries: Argentina, Australia, Belgium, Chile, France, Japan, New Zealand, Norway, South Africa, Russia, United Kingdom and the United States of America. That treaty was developed when people started to show interest in Antarctica. Scientists, environmentalists and others realized that something had to be done to protect Antarctica from farms and damage. The concept used for the creation of the treaty was sure that the countries used to Antarctica only for peaceful purposes and not military bases. Other countries have signed the treaty later. Another organization created specifically to take care of Antarctica was the Convention on the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources (CCAMLR), which was created in 1982 to ensure that the marine life of Antarctica is protected and that holdings in animals would never happen.Other environmental organizations that have been caring Antarctica include Sea Shepherd and Greenpeace.by:Thainara
