The Atlantic Salmon is endangered.
Our goal is to establish new ways to reverse the decline.
Through research and development, we hope to protect this iconic species and the beautiful #environment in its last 'safe-haven' in North East Iceland.
The North Atlantic Salmon population has slumped by 70%, its lowest level ever recorded.
Sir Jim Ratcliffe has other ideas.
Through the @SixRiversSalmon Project, Sir Jim has brought together experts in the field to act before it’s too late: https://t.co/WZ1SnZ08fG
Atlantic Salmon numbers have slumped by 70%, its lowest level ever recorded.
The world is looking to Iceland to inform conservation actions worldwide.
At a conference arranged by Sir Jim Ratcliffe, world experts have pledged to act before it’s too late: https://t.co/NP8gH2s0CV
North Atlantic Salmon stocks have declined by 70%.
The North East of Iceland is one of its last safe haven's - it must be protected.
The Six Rivers Conservation Project is a long-term programme to research and address this tragedy head-on: https://t.co/aoFaLgFjr0
The Atlantic Salmon population has fallen to one-quarter of its 1970s level, now categorised as endangered.
Today, experts from around the world met in Iceland to discuss the future of this species.

@SixRiversSalmon INEOS has brought together leading experts in the scientific community to help understand why this sad decline has come about.
Boosting understanding and establishing conservation strategies, success in Iceland will provide practical learnings for the world. @SixRiversSalmon
