Fish are sensitive, intelligent, emotional animals. They feel pain, use tools & form social bonds. They need celebrating. But fish also need protecting. Trillions of fish suffer silently each year. Please RT & give fish a voice! #RethinkFish 🐟 #FishesFeel

@AlboMP That doesn’t mean taking away their access to their social media support networks!

Like Brenda the Civil Disobedience Penguin says, anyone claiming to be saving the Great Barrier Reef, but who is not taking action to stop climate change is talking guano! https://t.co/ND6MiWS9D1

Farinella is a real life superhero. We need more people like him who are willing to speak out against these giant fishing corps using save labor, wrecking environmental havoc and sending diseases poisoned food to the USA. https://t.co/KXxkFGFOzk

Check our supermarket stunt! We're leaving ‘MSC Fish Pie’ recipes on magazine shelves across the UK. They explain how the Marine Stewardship Council @MSCintheUK certifies fisheries as sustainable even when they’re not.
And @Tesco is complicit in the scam.

Incredible piece of investigative journalism. Breaks my heart to think of the people, especially women, trapped in these awful places processing antibiotic-ridden shrimp/prawns for people on the other side of the world. Where are your shrimp/prawns from ? #SlaverySeafood

Each time I think my team has successfully tackled a harder story an even tougher one rolls up. Case in point: this epic investigation that we just published about an unusually brave whistleblower in India & what we found in the massive trove of documents he provided us.

Some great quotes from M&S, one of the leading retailers on #seafood #sustainability: “If we can’t put on a pack where a fish has come from, then we need to be asking ourselves some big questions.” #IUUimports #slaverysquid https://t.co/SAiaPHacvf

I’ve shifted to joyful Bluesky - if you’re there, especially you science & nature lovers & artists, let me know.

More evidence from @ejfoundation showing why we urgently need traceability & transparency in fisheries & strong laws in importing countries that close the market to products of illegal fishing & human rights abuse. #IUUfishing #slaveryseafood https://t.co/TCEt3keeqk

.@SeafoodSource , an industry publication, published a recap of the recent story in the ongoing OO investigation about crimes within the global seafood supply. The seafood source focused on physical, sexual abuse of North Korean workers at Chinese seafood processing plants connected to prominent seafood suppliers and retailers. https://t.co/WGPPEBuDk3

Another great Honest Government Ad. More chilling than funny to he honest. The first person to be jailed for war crimes in Australia? The journo that revealed this.

The 3rd in Ian Urbina's New Yorker series exposes North Koreans being forced to work in Chinese factories, with links to major global seafood brands & @MSCecolabel. No point sending social auditors to these factories if the factories are forewarned! https://t.co/tL0s3GIJAC

Thank you Chris Knaus @knausc for your incredible investigations into the deaths of homeless people in Australia. This story of Roger Davies is just one of far too many. https://t.co/cjJ58IrRps

It really should be a no brainer for a sustainability certification to reject any idea of using explosive “deterrents” on seals that dare to come near salmon farms, but Tassal clearly doesn't agree! ASC must stop allowing exemptions to its standard too. https://t.co/S1GQwCRQTg

One day museums will house factory farm exhibits, and future generations will marvel at the cruelty their ancestors were capable of.

We can each choose which side of history we want to be on.

As a serious nature lover, this is 💔. A total of 144 animals, plants & ecological communities were added to the national list of threatened wildlife in 2023 – this is 5 x more than the yearly average, & double the previous record year (2009). 🐟🐸🌳🦜https://t.co/wlJPhHISmE

Australia's fishing industry can no longer claim to be free of human rights abuses & slavery! All our seafood needs to be fully traceable & properly labelled to close the markets to this kind of abuse of people & nature. #IUUFishing #SlaverySeafood https://t.co/Wv42bYwm5M

[Dr Cat Dorey 🐟🪸🌳🐘 @CatfishStory]

A timely reminder that everything is connected - what happens in Antarctica will impact Aussie lives so we need more funding for scientific research there. e.g. sea ice loss influences Australian weather patterns https://t.co/QRXDP1h98C
