One way to combat bottom-trawling


"A Greenpeace ship has been dropping huge boulders into the sea off Brighton this week to stop fishing boats from trawling the sea bed. The action is part of campaign to tighten restrictions on the most destructive forms of fishing in protected areas of UK waters. But leaders of the fishing community describe the action as dangerous, illegal and irresponsible."

  1. Brilliant idea.
    Makes me want to donate some money to Greenpeace.

  2. Vandalism is never a good idea. However, that does not mean that fishers are being responsible citizens here. Trawling is bad. Stop it. Do better. Both of you!

  3. Nepkarel, this is vandalism against trawlers in the same way that wearing braces on your teeth is assault against the person punching you in the teeth
