What better than a life spent exploring the ocean? I can't think of anything I'd like to do more. https://t.co/tftB4tBw0K @ProfileBooks #ReefLife

Clive, a former trawlerman, knows first-hand the devastation that bottom trawling inflicts on the seafloor. Now, he's calling for urgent protection of our marine havens. Recovery IS possible, but only if we ACT NOW🔽 https://t.co/RC5rYr0Xld Thanks to @picturebukmedia

⚠️ UK Govt has dismissed the Environmental Audit Committee’s call for full bottom trawling bans in marine protected areas, calling it "disproportionate". Despite the evidence showing full bans are the ONLY way to truly protect ocean wildlife 🌊 1/2 https://t.co/GglVdAtAPL

The evidence is clear: Full bottom trawling bans are the ONLY way to truly protect our ocean sanctuaries & their precious wildlife 🐟 Our new Environment Secretary hold firm in the protection of our marine havens. Take action if you agree!

🚨🚨 Extremely concerning reports that UK Govt has DISMISSED calls from the Environmental Audit Committee for full bans on destructive bottom trawling in our marine protected areas 1/2🔽 https://t.co/32Bkcm0swz

"Bottom trawling is one of the most widely used, & most destructive, fishing practices in the world" 🎣 Yet it's allowed in most marine protected areas 🌊 Check out this new BBC podcast for more info👇 https://t.co/L508tRT2Gt Then TAKE ACTION with us 🔽 https://t.co/RC5rYr1vaL

We call for protection of Goidhoo Atoll’s exceptional marine environment. The atoll’s remarkable corals, some hundreds of years old, have survived bleaching, defying national and global losses. It’s natural assets are nationally and internationally important and irreplaceable.

🚨The UK Govt is asking the public to give their thoughts on whether they should extend bottom trawling bans in 41 English protected areas. 🌊 This is our chance! Use your voice to help kick this wasteful, destructive practice out of ocean havens! 👇 https://t.co/RC5rYr0Xld

Bad idea #12 'there’s nothing down there' In this timely episode, Mark Lynas speaks with marine conservationist @ProfCallum, Professor at the University of Exeter and lead author of a new Nature commentary calling for full protection of the high seas. Check out the podcast now:

Protect the Vulnerable – Introduce 'Richard’s Law' to Regulate Home Carers in England - Sign the Petition! https://t.co/Lljav6MGzO via @UKChange

In early June, I attended my first major marine conferences - One Ocean Science Congress and the 3rd UN Ocean Conference, both in Nice. Alongside colleagues from @ConvexSeascape, I co-presented findings from the Isle of Arran, soon to be released as a paper 🤫 #unoceandecade

Over the last year, the SEACHANGE team, led by Dr Luke Holman have been working on the publication of a themed issue in the journal Philosophical Transactions entitled “Shifting Seas: Understanding Deep-Time Human Impacts on Marine Ecosystems". https://t.co/vTikD6zq8O

In a timely comment piece in @Nature ahead of #UNOC3, leading ocean scientists make the case for protecting the High Seas from all extraction. @ProfCallum @dyer_meals @SylviaEarle @oveHG @JessicaMeeuwig @DrRashidSumaila @UBCoceans @jrockstrom @mark_lynas https://t.co/MaZBkzWDfz

“Why we should protect the high seas from all extraction … forever” “…Save taxpayer money + prevent …declines in endangered, threatened & protected species, as well as immense damage to the seabed and open-water habitats.” #DefendTheDeep https://t.co/BlTqPpXqzI

Dragging heavy nets across the seafloor isn’t protection—it’s destruction. So why is bottom trawling allowed across Europe's "protected" areas? At #UNOC3, we're calling on governments to ban bottom trawling in marine protected areas. Ocean protection must be real protection.

As #UNOC3 ends in Nice, momentum to #DefendTheDeep is growing: ✔️ 37 countries back a #DeepSeaMining moratorium ✔️ ECJ upholds bottom-contact fishing ban ✔️ Scientists urge action to #ProtectSeamounts Now governments must act: https://t.co/rHxvTwRFsJ

Without robust Marine Protected Areas, where bottom trawling & other harmful practices are not allowed, there will be no fish left to catch. If we don't restore health to our rivers & oceans, there will be nothing left to fish. https://t.co/um5I2zvl7v
