Sharks and rays face growing risk of extinction from overfishing β€œSharks and rays are important predators, and their decline disrupts food webs throughout the ocean", said one of the study's authors.

🚨 Overfishing has caused shark numbers to decline by +50% in the last 50 yrs, research shows. #Sharks are ancient species that are critical to #ocean health. We MUST curb #overfishing to ensure their survival. Science-backed catch limits now! #EndOverfishing πŸ‘‡

Humanity faces a new, grave threat: #DeepSeaMining. This destructive activity risks irreversible #BiodiversityLoss and disrupting the deep’s ability to store carbon–undermining our climate resilience.

πŸ“’ World leaders at #COP29 must support a moratorium and #DefendTheDeep.

U.K. Government Urged To Set Deadline To End Overfishing The study by the non-profit Oceana says ministers should set a new legally binding, science-led deadline to end overfishing by the end of 2025.

Our new roadmap, as featured in Forbes, lays out a bold plan to end the gutting of our seas and restore our ocean. It’s time to put science first. #EndOverfishing 🌊
