Do you want to do something to help protect the ocean? Read about how this youth programme in Mexico has used the #bigmicroplasticsurvey to encourage youngsters to fight for the future of their ocean. justoneocean.org/teens-leading-… @UOP_SEGG @Seasaver @MissionBlue @OurOcean

They have been doing this in Germany for the last 20 years! It really shouldn't be this difficult. #notbloodyrocketscience #plasticpollution @natalieben @Feargal_Sharkey @HughFW @TheGreenParty @Seasaver @Bluemarinef @UOP_SEGG bit.ly/3kQaWQW

This is a big change in policy. Implementing these changes will be difficult but these are the sort of actions we must take if we are going to resolve the issue of #plasticpollution

We applaud the $60k fine imposed for importing shark fins. Unfortunately the lucrative nature of this abhorrent practice means that will not be a sufficient deterrent. bit.ly/3nv3q0j @Seasaver @MissionBlue #canada #sharksfin #tougheraction

"A less environmentally & socially damaging alternative to terrestrial mining" Seriously! Because we can't see it! This is an environmental catastrophe waiting to happen #stopdeepseamining @UOP_SEGG @Feargal_Sharkey @MatthewModine @natalieben @MissionBlue bit.ly/35O2tWG

This has to stop. Fines are not working and EA is proving to be ineffective. Water companies must be held accountable & better legislation introduced to ensure they improve their processes. bit.ly/3pQ4PNW @Feargal_Sharkey @Seasaver @natalieben @ChrisGPackham @UOP_SEGG
