Stop "Dirty Fishing" from Recklessly Killing Ocean Life!
Target: National Marine Fisheries Service
Sponsored by: Care2
Sponsored by: Care2
Each year, commercial fishing wastes more than 16 billion pounds of fish and kills hundreds of thousands of sea turtles, marine mammals and seabirds. These ocean creatures are needlessly caught and discarded, usually dead or dying, by fishing operations around the world. Under existing laws, the federal government is required to reduce dirty fishing. Yet, nearly a decade after Congress enacted laws addressing dirty fishing, the steps taken have been grossly inadequate. Tell the National Marine Fisheries Service to improve their fragmented and unfocused efforts to reduce dirty fishing, and implement practical strategies that produce real results.

Once the fisheries are depleted--there is no getting back what was abused. When they are gone, they're gone forever.
