   ocr: The Antarctic's main resources are its marine stocks, including fin-fish, squids,laill, seals and whales. In 1989,France and Australia joined environmental groups in demanding a ban on potential mineral activities, and campaigning for Antarctica to be declared a world park. Chile and Argentina, in particular, see this as a threat to possible territorial claims. Use of alternative energy sources to fossil fuels are being encouraged, . such as solar power and wind generators.
