Shark meat is being sold under misleading names in the UK. If you're eating Huss, Rock, Rock Salmon, Rigg or Flake you are very likely to be eating shark.
Sign the petition asking the UK gov to prohibit the sale of sharks under misleading names in the UK: https://t.co/jh88Kw55Hr
Planet Earth? More like Planet Ocean 🌊 @HugoSAS keynote is loud & clear. There is no business on a dead planet ‼️ We have the data we need to act. Large scale protection and restoration needs to start now 🐋🌱🪸🌏 @oceana#CoastalFutures23@CF_Conf
Can we call fish 'fish' please rather than 'stocks'. Stocks lie on pallets in a warehouse. Fish are living, breathing wonders of nature #CoastalFutures23
Day 1 closes with emotive keynote @hannahsrudd 🌊 We must improve diversity, inclusion and accessibility to progress but being a marine scientist is not a pipe dream 💙 #CoastalFutures23
“We need to be thinking big, survival increases with scale!” @RJLilley talks about @ProjectSeagrass & how we need more people/communities involved to deliver marine restoration projects 🌱 We need to become #GenerationRestoration#CoastalFutures23
“We need an evidence big bang”
Evidence and data needs to flow bi-directionally to make a difference! ♻️
Fisheries management is used as an example “It’s not the fish, the fish are fabulous… it’s the people” 🐠
#CoastalFutures23
@AislingJimi talking about the complexities of our waters but the scope for change if we work collectively, rebuilding trust, co-designing the future of fisheries management. But key is to act now #CoastalFutures23
Attending @CF_Conf online this week! 🌎 Looking forward to talks on tackling the climate challenge & developing marine restoration today 🌊 #CoastalFutures23
