ONLY ONE, OCEANA & SEAS AT RISK : Ban bottom trawling in Europe’s protected waters !
Hi there,
A deadly and destructive form of fishing called bottom trawling is putting Europe’s marine protected areas (MPAs) in grave danger. Over the last 9 years, fishing vessels have spent more than 4 MILLION hours bottom trawling in EU MPAs. To put this in perspective, 4 million hours is more than 500 years worth of trawling, just in the last decade alone.
Bottom trawling involves dragging heavy nets — some hundreds of metres long and up to five tonnes — across fragile ocean seabeds, where they scrape away centuries-old reefs and destroy endangered marine life — and EU leaders are allowing this to happen. Every day, dolphins, sharks, turtles, and other animals are swept up and killed at random. If we want to truly protect Europe’s seas, then bottom trawling in protected areas must stop now.
Will you take one action with us to put pressure on our leaders?
Across the world, marine life is vanishing from our seas at an alarming rate — according to the Marine Conservation Institute, “90% of global fish populations are fully-fished or overfished.”
Every drag of the net of bottom trawling is a blow to the biodiversity of our oceans. In fact, 59% of Europe's so-called marine protected areas (MPAs) are regularly trawled, often at higher levels than unprotected areas — with vulnerable wildlife at greater risk within the boundaries of these supposed sanctuaries.
This relentless destruction, sanctioned by EU leaders within areas meant to be protected, cannot be the legacy we leave for future generations.
Join us, and urge EU leaders to truly protect our waters, before it is too late.
Together, we can protect endangered species and bring an abundance of life back to European waters.
Thank you,
Only One, Seas At Risk, and Oceana.
P.S. You can also help spread the word by sharing the campaign on Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram.

Gaza (EKO) : Contre le GENOCIDE, BANNISSEZ ISRAËL DE L' EUROVISION !
Alors que les Palestiniens sont confrontés à la famine et à la mort de 32 000 personnes aux mains des forces israéliennes, la participation d'Israël au concours de l'Eurovision est toujours d'actualité.
Il est temps d'agir et d'envoyer un message clair à l'Eurovision : interdisez la participation d'Israël ou nous boycotterons le concours.

Richard TAILLEFER (France) lance une adresse aux poètes.
Poètes, rangez vos mouchoirs, sortez vos mots à la face d'un monde qui n'a, pour finalité, que la vanité et les fausses idoles. Ne restez pas figés sur vos tours d'ivoire. On vous espère, on vous attend dans les caniveaux de l'espoir pour apporter votre modeste lumière et donner du sens à nos vies confisquées. La poésie n'est pas la face cachée de la littérature, elle en est le diamant brut.
