@guardianeco Late but indeed a good decision, though it should have happened 30 years ago.
@guardianeco Should be a blanket ban in all our seas & coasts
@guardianeco “We will ban bottom trawling in our national parks by 2026 & in all marine protected areas by 2030.” Why not aim to ban it in all marine areas by 2030? I mean, we're talking about bottom trawling here, which is among the most destructive forms of human assaults on nature.
@guardianeco Insane that it has still been allowed in marine parks. What kind of "parks" where they? It's like allowing a bulldozer to scrape entire landscapes to the bare rock in woodland.
