                        It's also contributing to the climate crisis.









                        Stop the U.K. Government's 1.8 Billion Damage to 
Marine Life

                        Imagine our oceans emptied of fish, their vibrant 
ecosystems irreversibly damaged. This haunting scenario is becoming a stark 
reality, fueled by the UK government's 1.8 billion in tax breaks for the 
fishing industry over the past decade. These subsidies are not just numbers 
on a page; they represent a direct threat to the very heart of our marine 
world, encouraging destructive fishing practices that are depleting fish 
populations and harming our planet.



                        Sign this petition to demand DEFRA end these 
devastating tax breaks and protect our oceans from ecological collapse.



                        The subsidies cater to the most fuel-intensive, 
environmentally harmful fishing methods, like trawling and dredging. As a 
result, we're not only overfishing but also contributing to the climate 
crisis. With over a third of global fish stocks already overfished, the 
continuation of these subsidies isn't just irresponsible — it's a direct 
attack on the future of our oceans and the life they sustain. Sign this 
petition to support DEFRA in taking bold action to end subsidies that are 
emptying our oceans and exacerbating climate change, ensuring a thriving, 
sustainable future for marine life.




                 Thank you,

                        Jess
