BEIJING - Following the continuing oil leak in Bohai Bay, experts warned that fast offshore development is polluting China's fragile sea.

With marine economy becoming another engine for the country's economy in the 12th Five-Year Plan (2011-2015), coastal provinces and municipalities are going full speed in their offshore development plans.

"Offshore development is going too fast, and it ignores the marine capacity for human activities, especially land reclamation from the sea and offshore oil and gas exploration," Sun Baocun, marine professor from Tianjin University, told China Daily on Thursday.
