✒️ Lissette Victorero is the lead author of the new study finding that some fishing still persists in protected deep-sea areas.

There are significant risks to vulnerable marine ecosystems that the current regulatory framework isn’t addressing to protect #OceanLifelines.

Our new article out in Science Advances today! 🌊 In Europe we have protected 1% of our deep-sea biodiversity from bottom-contact fishing, but our analysis revealed that 3,500 hours of fishing still occurred within these protected areas. https://t.co/hGvx1IZ3zF @DeepStewardship

🚨Paper Alert🚨

⚠️Over 80% of the #EU’s #MPAs only marginally regulates human activities.

🤏0.2% are #fully or #highly protected.

🌊Reaching the EU’s 10% strict protection target will require radical changes to the regulation of activities in EU MPAs.

THANKS FOR WATCHING THIS SPACE: The North Pacific Fisheries Commission meeting finished Thursday night (18 April) – sad to say that the proposal by the United States and Canada has not been adopted. We are disappointed to say the least BUT the good news is that the US and Canada DID NOT COMPROMISE, and we URGE them to put the proposal on the table again next year. Nonetheless…(1/5)
