520 |a"Peter Wells has concluded that "the environmental quality of the Bay of Fundy has been compromised due to widespread chemical contamination of waters, sediments and biota". However, we presently have "relatively little understanding or monitoring of the biota's response to such contamination". In other words, the toxic chemicals are there, but we don't really know what effects, if any, they are having on the animals and plants. This is disturbing, given the great economic importance of the Bay's living resources, and the fact that we ourselves consume large quantities of them. We must continue studying the effects of the many contaminants that are present in the marine environment in order to find out which ones threaten us and the ecosystem. We must also identify the main sources of these toxic contaminants and take steps to reduce or eliminate their discharge into the sea."--p. 6.
