Advantages and Disadvantages of Australia's Large Coastline and EEZ



Advantages:

We have more unique and beautiful aquatic flora and fauna.
Australia has amazing resources such as the Great Barrier Reef.
We are able to see in coming problems such as Japanese whaling boats and Asylum seekers.
Australia overall controls more land.
Brings more tourists to Australia to see our aquatic life.

Disadvantages-

There is more area to maintain and look after.
Problems such as Japanese whaling occurs more frequently.
EEZ need to be maintained and probably looked after.
More chance of oil spillages at sea affecting our aquatic flora and fauna as we have such a large proportion of marine life.
The EEZ are very far away and can be hard to get to if weather is bad.
