It's sad to think that one day, the planet Earth may be gone.  This is despite our best efforts to save her. The good news is that provided we all work together, we can preserve the status quo on our beautiful blue world, for centuries to come.  Provided that is we heed the warnings nature is sending us, such as global warming and other pollutions.

Support for sustainable seafood

 

 

2007 could be the year that bluefin tuna disappears completely from the Mediterranean.

 

In early May the Mediterranean bluefin tuna fishing season starts again and a tragedy is about to unfold. The European Union (EU) has set fishing quotas at more than twice what science recommends and as a result the fishery is likely to collapse.


In an open letter (PDF format) WWF and concerned companies across Europe are asking the EU to be reasonable.


WWF and these companies want a seafood industry that does not destroy ocean life and are doing our bit to buy or sell sustainable seafood. But we also want the EU to help by doing a better job of managing fisheries in a sustainable way.


The EU must act now or risk presiding over the demise of one of the most magnificent fish that swims the ocean.
