Australia’s greater gliders are on the verge of extinction and new regulations were supposed to protect them from loggers. But a new report alleges they’ve been breached 188 times since they were introduced in February

Deep sea mining for rare metals is the new industrial frontier. It will have devastating implications for the marine environment.

Please join the 50,000 people who have signed our petition and help stop #deepseamining before the disaster begins.

BREAKING: More than half fish quotas agreed by UK are above scientific advice 🚨

The Government’s Centre for Environment, Fisheries and Aquaculture Science (Cefas) found that only 46% of catch limits negotiated by UK with EU and countries such as Norway for 2024 are at sustainable levels.

The senseless badger cull MUST end. Today we release the first of a series of animations educating the public about this senseless slaughter of over 250,000 badgers.

A critically endangered grey nurse shark has been filmed off New South Wales in Australia with a frisbee stuck around its body, forcing it to rely only on its tail as the beach toy slowly digs further into its skin.

There’s Something Very Fishy About the Global Seafood Supply.

Part of the problem with global seafood is that companies and governments barely know where these ships are working, much less how they are behaving.

>1/3 of all grey whales on the N American west coast died in the last 5 years.

I called it a year ago: they starved.

But NOAA is careful not to imply industrial fishing had anything to do with it, as it would impugn their regulation.

All we get are vague references to climate.

A gargantuan heap of fishing gear (possibly 640,000 tonnes - twice the weight of the Empire State Building) is lost, abandoned, or discarded at sea. It stays in the marine environment for hundreds of years, killing marine life and polluting the ocean.

Norwegian salmon farms are taking huge amounts of wild fish from West Africa.

In 2020, the industry produced salmon feed using up to 144,000 tons of pelagic fish caught off West Africa, where they could have fed between 2.5 - 4 million people.

Watch how hard the spotted catshark fights to get back into the water (halfway through the video).

These kinds of “walking” behaviors often go viral on cute animal pages. No one sees when they desperately crawl over the corpses of their entire ecosystem so we can have seafood.

Yes, we've found Lego from the 1997 spill in recent days, after the high spring tides at the weekend. But look at the state of these beaches. Plastic galore. #Cornwall

Environmental groups sue to force the U.S. federal government to finalise ship speed rules that protect North Atlantic right whales, which number less than 360 and are at risk from collisions with ships and entanglement in commercial fishing gear.

In terms of surface area, industrial fishing is the worst thing that has ever happened to this planet

I’m not someone who denies the value of tagging research, but we must be able to have open and honest conversations about adverse impacts and diminishing returns of wildlife surveillance.

This is obscene.
