“…The foundation of this approach lies in the sustainable utilization of ocean resources, with the aim of stimulating economic growth. The subject under discussion is not merely a constituent of the global economy, but rather an embodiment of a deeper commitment to harmonizing human well-being with the health and sustainability of our marine ecosystems (Midlen, 2021).…”

“…There are also more detailed texts that take into account management and innovative products in the field of green business in the BE (Kraus et al, 2020). In addition, some articles deal with the creation of the BE on different continents (Mohanty & Dash, 2020), in different regions, such as the Bay of Bengal (Alam, 2021), in various countries, including the Philippines (Satizábal et al, 2020), as well as BE governance (Midlen, 2021).…”
