This move is part of Greece's broader €780 million investment in marine protection, including the creation of two new marine parks and a goal to protect 30% of its ocean area by 2030.

While Scotland’s recent decision to ban trawling in Marine Protected Areas (MPAs) is a step in the right direction, it’s crucial to acknowledge that MPAs are defined as areas where human activities are regulated to protect marine ecosystems and biodiversity. Given this definition, these areas should have had stringent protections from the start. The need to ban trawling now suggests that initial conservation measures were not adequately enforced. Moving forward, it’s essential that MPAs are carefully managed from the outset to prevent such issues and ensure effective protection of our marine environments 🙏🏼 #Marineconservation #Sustainability #Oceanprotection #Marinebiodiversity #Environmentalpolicy #Ecofriendly #MPAs #Trawlingban

The Irish inshore fishing sector is in trouble. The government has failed to provide supports and over the past two years has watched its problems spiral. The largest sector of the Irish fishing fleet, supporting families and communities all along the coast.

What does the government hope to achieve by destroying the Irish inshore fishing sector?

Until 2022 we had no idea how European eels bred. What we discovered is that the Sargasso Sea (a region bordered by four ocean currents which also happens to be where the Bermuda Triangle is located) is the only place in the world where European eels congregate to breed.  Freshwater eels spend much of their lives far away from salt water, but they still spawn in the sea (and then grow in freshwater). So interesting!  Next week I’ll be posting a brief reference guide - a cheat sheet that covers which fish we should choose and which fish we should avoid. Which list do you think eel are on? #FishFact #SustainableSeafood #Sustainability #Eels
