Enough is enough. It’s time for a ban - starting yesterday.
Take action with us, @bluemarinef.bsky.social & Only One to save UK seas. Email the Environment Secretary, Steve Reed, telling him to BAN bottom trawling in marine protected areas. 🚫✊
💥 ACT: act.for-the-ocean.org/act/protect-... 👈👈
❌ Promise made. Promise broken?
The UK Environment Secretary, Steve Reed, VOWED to end bottom trawling.
A year on, and we are STILL waiting. 3/4 🔽
🚨 BREAKING: 20,000+ HOURS of suspected bottom trawling WRECKED the UK’s offshore marine “protected” areas last year, our research shows! 🌊 That would score tracks on the seabed that would stretch EIGHT TIMES around the UK. All with the government's permission! 1/4 🔽

#TheBottomLine is, you can’t have a marine protected area and trawl it. ❌
Which side of history will you be on?
Take action with us, Oceana UK and Only One here 👉 www.bluemarinefoundation.com/2025/04/30/t...
YOU can help create a lasting legacy for UK waters with Blue Marine, Oceana UK and Only One by asking Steve Reed to close our marine protected areas to bottom trawling. We stand at a crossroads, protect our ocean and save our planet, or continue to plunder our greatest natural asset.
A new poll reveals overwhelming public support for a trawling ban in protected areas. It follows the cinema release of feature film OCEAN WITH DAVID ATTENBOROUGH which features graphic scenes of undersea destruction caused by trawling, filmed in greater detail than ever before.
“Bottom trawling is still allowed in many so-called marine protected areas worldwide. And perhaps even more astonishingly, it is subsidised by governments. Very few places are safe from this. including almost nowhere in my own country.” - David Attenborough, in OCEAN.

It was an honour to host the Future Generations world premiere of Ocean with David Attenborough 🌊
The film will be in cinemas from May 8, and on National Geographic, Disney+ and Hulu from June 8 (World Ocean Day). We can’t wait for you all to see it! 🐟
#oceanfilm
amazing that David Attenborough has put out a film about the world's seas on his 99th birthday, including footage from Scotland's beautiful inshore, all very much worthy of @emmaroddicksnp.bsky.social's motion to Parliament and comment from @bluemarinef.bsky.social news.stv.tv/scotland/sir...

The 1st national UK conference on kelp ecology is happening at @sussex.ac.uk today. Follow @sussexkelp.bsky.social and #KelpSummit2025 for updates through the day, and check out the new report from @bluemarinef.bsky.social sussexwildlifetrust.org.uk/news/uks-fir...
🚨Governments pledged to protect at least 30% of the ocean by 2030, yet bottom trawling is still allowed in "protected" areas.
Join the Week of Ocean Action & demand bottom trawling is banned in Europe’s marine protected areas.

Our friends @oceanauk.bsky.social are in court today, fighting to get big oil out of our ocean.
This is a court case to keep a close eye on 👇👇
🐧 GREAT OCEAN NEWS 🐧
The SA government has finally declared no-take zones around key African Penguin breeding colonies.
My friends at SANCCOB have worked tirelessly for many years to make this happen, and they deserve to be widely praised for this hard-fought victory.

🚨The great UK fishing scandal continues as 54% of catch limits are set above scientific advice for 2025, further jeopardising our dwindling fish populations and struggling small-scale fishing fleets.
The Labour government must and can turn this around for people & the planet. Share if you agree✊
BREAKING NEWS 🚨 SANCCOB, BirdLife SA, the fishing industry and the South African government agree to new no-take zones to commercial fishers around penguin breeding colonies. 🐧
Thank you for supporting this campaign to #SaveAfricanPenguins.

Another big environmental court case is coming. This time from our friends @oceanauk.bsky.social
It’s time to get big oil out of our marine protected areas. This case is one to keep up to date on👇
The UK Government went against scientific advice when it set maximum fishing quotas for 2024.
