We’re concerned by overexploitation of blue🦈,the most heavily fished oceanic🦈, without limits or sustainable management. At this #WCPFC meeting, along with @WILDOCEANSSA and @oceana ,we call to develop limit reference points and begin developing management procedures for blue🦈
Last week #ICCAT 28th Commission made 2 steps forwards & 1 step back for 🦈.
✔️Harvest strategies for blue 🦈
✔️Catch limit & binding quota in SAtlantic
🥲Catch limit in NAtlantic too high
😫 🇯🇵 prevents Fins Naturally Attached again
#ICCAT2023 ended earlier this week and the 🔑 conclusion is that #ICCAT2024 will have a lot of ground to recover.

🌊 Urgent Action Needed! 🌍 The NE Atlantic ecosystem is facing a crisis. The latest @osparcomm QSR 2023 paints a bleak picture of ongoing deterioration. We call on coastal state ministers to adopt an ecosystem-based approach to fisheries management. 🐟🌿#QSR2023#MakeEBFMWork
We’re joining @DeepSeaConserve in calling on Commissioner @VSinkevicius to demonstrate once again his commitment to the protection of the #DeepSea & steer the adoption of new closures of #Seamounts & other #VMEs in European waters: https://t.co/3qKGp6z1i1
📣 During #UNGA78, we marched in the streets of NYC to demand for ocean and climate action now!
#DeepSeaMining, #bottomtrawling and other human activities would exacerbate the #ClimateCrisis.
➡️ Hear from government ministers on why we need to #DefendTheDeep!🇨🇷🇵🇼🇫🇷
