Protecting coastal biodiversity is vital to the survival of the oceans, and our own species. This International Day for Biological Diversity, we're sharing our growing concern about the impact of industrial salmon farms – which are impacting fragile marine ecosystems.
Communities across the globe have tremendous power to step up and set the tone for protecting native biodiversity along the coasts, which in turn can bolster the resilience of the global ecosystem that connects and sustains all life on Earth.
