Great work @InkaCresswell !!!.
Protect the ocean, so it can protect us 🌊 Almost 200,000 of you used your voices to stand up for the oceans and ask for an end to bottom trawling within marine protected areas . I had the joy of ensuring your voices were heard, delivering this petition box to @DefraGovUK 🌊💙🪸

This is truly wonderful! Exemplary World Leader, Passionate Ocean Advocate and the Inspirational Next Generation combine to give us glimpse of a better future! #HopeSpringsEternal.
It’s not every day you get to film with a penguin and a president! Moments like this, where I can share the magic of our oceans and connect with future ocean stewards, are what make this work so meaningful. #OurOceans.

Wise words from the ever eloquent @lizbonnin at the #MarchForCleanWater. One of many inspiring speeches from three generations of water lovers from all walks of life. Hoping Kier Starmer PM, MPs from all parties, the Water Companies & @Ofwat are all listening. Time to clean up.
Liz Bonnin speaking at #MarchForCleanWater 🌊. "We know the undeniable truth. And we're all here today to say that the game is up" @lizbonnin . "Intensive industries, corporate greed and political systems, are destroying the planets life support systems that we rely on to thrive"
