🌊 The Mediterranean deep-sea plays a key role in biodiversity and climate regulation, but bottom trawling destroys habitats and marine life. This highly destructive fishing practice involves dragging huge nets along the seafloor for miles, where they bulldoze everything in their path. Extending the deep-sea trawl ban to below 2,625 feet (800 meters) is vital to protect these vulnerable marine ecosystems. 🪸 #DefendTheDeep #BottomTrawling #Mediterranean oceanaEurope
