GOOD NEWS!Yesterday afternoon in Juneau, Alaska, the North Pacific - TopicsExpress



          

GOOD NEWS!Yesterday afternoon in Juneau, Alaska, the North Pacific Fishery Management Council took a huge step forward to protect the Grand Canyons of the Sea. Despite considerable pressure from powerful fishing interests – the Council will now move forward to identify key coral areas in the Bering Sea Canyons and consider measures to protect them. Translation: we got what we wanted! The Council moved forward, unanimously, with two motions to begin a process that can, finally, protect the Bering Sea Canyons, and the vibrant ecosystem and productive fisheries they support. As usual though, we need to stay on top of this, as we are a part of making sure they follow through.
