UK Government: Ban supertrawlers and bottom trawlers in the UK’s Marine Protected Areas.

Unbelievably - huge destructive ships are allowed to fish in UK Marine Protected Areas - they spend thousands of hours fishing in them every year! These industrial ships destroy marine life.

They shouldn’t be operating in areas meant to be ocean sanctuaries, protecting vulnerable ecosystems and iconic wildlife like dolphins and porpoises. It's time to put an end to this.

Can you call on the government to protect the UK’s waters and support local fishing communities? It’s time to ban supertrawlers and bottom trawlers from fishing in our Marine Protected Areas.

SIGN THE PETITION

To: The UK government

"Ban supertrawlers and other destructive fishing from the UK’s offshore Marine Protected Areas and stand up for ocean protection."

Now that the UK has left the European Union’s Common Fisheries Policy, our Government has a choice: show truly world leading ambition when it comes to ocean protection, or to carry on letting these destructive and greedy ships fish in supposedly protected parts of our waters.
