It makes no sense to waste any #seafood - ethically, environmentally or financially. @OceanCluster can help you identify and optimise usage creating secondary yields with benefits for all. Get in touch! @EarthshotPrize

On recent visit to Iceland, I was impressed by the content of this wall diagram. Before the advent of throwaway consumerism most people saw the logic of the old saying “Waste not, want not.” #FAO Blue Transformation strategy calls for global fish loss & waste to be halved by 2030

@ThomsonFiji Delighted you got to the @OceanCluster and caught up with @ArniMMathiesen been working with them for - specifically on 100% utilisation in Namibia - and am honoured to be an Ambassador. If we're going to take a fish out of the ocean we must ensure we use 100% #zerowaste

On a tour of the Iceland Ocean Cluster in Reykjavik yesterday, former head of fisheries & aquaculture at FAO, Árni Mathieson, extolled the virtues of the sustainable blue economy. Memorably, he said, “Fishing is the right thing to do, you just have to do it right.”

I've been so fortunate to be at the heart of this project for the past 3yrs. I've learned and I'm in no doubt that #zerowaste is critical. Let's talk about achieving full utilisation in your seafood systems, farmed or wild.

We join the call on remaining @WTO members to ratify the deal to end #HarmfulFisheriesSubsidies for entry into force as soon as possible: for the sake of the #ocean, fish, fishers & sustainable #fisheries. 🐟 The WTO's Ministerial Conference in February is a key milestone! #MC13
WTO@wto

We are halfway there! 55 countries accepted the WTO’s 2022 #FisheriesSubsidies Agreement, paving the way for sustainable practices. We need 55 more by late February to make a positive impact on our oceans! More: bit.ly/3S3H9nJ
