If these areas are truly “protected,” why are #IndustrialFleets allowed to plunder them? It’s time to ban supertrawlers from MPAs and hold governments accountable.

My February in #boardgames was great fun! I got to try 6 games that were new to me, and I particularly enjoyed #InTheHallOfTheMountainKing, #AboveAndBelow, and #Fishing. One new game I didn't like at all was #BlackJacky. Which are your favourites? Which would you like to try?

“An entire system of comharran – Gaelic navigational marks – surrounds the islands. Most are known only to the fishermen. […] A wealth of knowledge about the creatures which populate these fishing grounds is also encoded within the Gaelic language.”

@futurebird this is also a problem in #Norway. Nobody's talking about the over #fishing or the #trawling off the coast that is destroying reefs, or even the fish farms in #Norwegian #fjords that are dumping massive amounts of #antibiotics into the water - because fish farms are havens for bacteria and viruses.
But some Spanish or Portuguese boats come up to take away quota from Norwegian companies? RABBLE, RABBLE, RABBLE!
People are greedy idiots sometimes.
