The disruption of carbon sequestration processes across key ecosystems is truly terrifying. Forget growth, we need to eliminate carbon emissions & secure ecosystem protection at scale by implementing #30x30. @UKLabour wake up! theguardian.com/environment/20…

Protect What’s Beneath the Surface: The Isle of Rum's Disappearing Ecosystems Our most recent investigations have revealed further damage, exposing the urgent need for real protection before it's too late. The waters around the Isle of Rum lie within the Small Isles Marine Protected Area (MPA), home to rare and vital marine life, from carbon-storing muds to the largest known bed of fan mussels in Scotland. But despite its "protected" status, bottom-trawling and scallop dredging continue to destroy these delicate habitats. Promises have been made by @scotgov to safeguard these waters for nearly a decade—but action is yet to follow. Our seas and future depend on it. Visit bit.ly/3UIsuS3 to learn how you can help protect these vital ecosystems. #ProtectOurSeas #IsleOfRum #MPA #MarineLife #SustainableFishing #Scotland

Got to love this theory as to why yachts have been going through Straits of Gibraltar have been targeted by Iberian #orca, with young #killerwhales attacking the sailing boats' rudders. Is it that they are practicing their #tuna hunting techniques? bit.ly/3Xs1c3a

Join @MaldivesCoral & other Maldivian NGOs in stopping the Maldivian Government in granting #longlinefishing licenses that will have devastating impacts on #sharks & other marine life, undermines the sustainable pole and line fishery & will put off tourists.

Knock me down with a (sea) feather (crinoid)! New research shows polymetallic nodules carry a similar charge to an AA battery & produce 'dark oxygen'. If you need one more reason as to why there should be no #DeepSeaMining, look no further! #defendthedeep bit.ly/3Ww6SbZ
