Allowing a targeted fishery for Gulper Sharks would be a major setback for the Maldives. One of the world’s last Shark Sanctuaries.
Saying yes means opening the door to legal shark fishing again.

@EmmaforWycombe Congratulations on your appointment.
We look forward to working with you to continue your government's work to restore our ocean health, including ending destructive bottom trawling in marine protected areas, as committed by the Prime Minister with Sir David Attenborough at his Ocean film.

"From the surface, you would have no idea that this is happening. It has remained hidden from view, until now" - David Attenborough

The devastating effects of bottom trawling are finally revealed.

Today, our EU project manager joined a coalition of NGOs to deliver the #EndBottomTrawling petition to EU Commissioner for Fisheries and Oceans @CostasKadis

The petition, signed by over 200 thousand people shows wide public support for properly protecting our ocean. 🌊

[Costas Kadis @CostasKadis]

Had an open and honest discussion with NGOs about protecting our Ocean. I received their 🗳️petition, with thousands of messages from citizens concerned about bottom trawling in Marine Protected Areas. Ongoing dialogue, collaboration and decision making based on sound scientific evidence are key to managing our resources responsibly, while balancing the social and economic impacts on our fishers. Innovation and awareness are crucial for finding shared solutions to common challenges.

[Zac Goldsmith @ZacGoldsmith]

In the UK, 38% of our domestic waters are meant to be protected - but only 8% are protected from bottom trawling - the most destructive of fishing practices.
Please watch & share this devastating clip from Sir David Attenborough’s OCEAN.
The film also reveals a powerful truth: the ocean can be restored... if enough of it is properly protected.
Please join @Bluemarinef and take action today to stop this madness.

Britain has been quietly increasing exports of European eel to Russia over the past few years despite the species being endangered ❌

“This is an unprincipled, unselfconsciously greedy mugging of the UK on behalf of the EU’s fishing nations, completely ignoring the EU’s own commitments to protecting nature,” @CRHClover, Blue Marine co-founder on EU fisherman access to British waters.

Just when we think there is nothing left to discover on planet earth, we find a massive coral made of nearly one billion little polyps, pulsing with life and color. 🪸 https://t.co/1G6nh0EHqQ

Let’s face it: We’re #InHotWater 🌡️

Marine heatwaves push ecosystems to the edge.

From coral bleaching to devastating storms, people and nature are in peril.

It’s time to stop burning fossil fuels.

The ocean – and our future – depend on it. #COP29 #ActForOurPlanet
