A year ago I decided to buy a camera & learn to shoot documentaries.

While scientists are terrible at communicating... I thought the best use of my time was to share the stories of these amazing Ocean champions with all of you🌊

Maybe the Chinese DWF gets too much positive attention..

Why take down the EU fleet to just be replaced by the Chinese or other?

We need stronger environmental governance that applies to all. We won't bend the overfishing curve globally without engaging all major fleets.

European fishermen would love to have even half of the positive attention that the Chinese Government gives to their fishermen. Instead we are prosecuted as criminals by the legislation of impossible application and ecocides by the legion of anti-fishing NGOS. China wants fishing

Why does this feel so accurate...

"..to date most RFMOs have paid scant attention to fishing’s impact on dependent and associated species or the wider marine environment and biodiversity it contains"

... when it's from 2013?
