🐋 A new study has identified global hotspots for whale-ship collisions. The research highlights the urgent need for #MPAs and reducing vessel speeds. By addressing this issue, we can help ensure the survival of whales & maintain the health of our oceans.

Antarctic krill: Keystone species under threat. Climate change & overfishing impact their survival. Melting sea ice reduces habitat & increases fishing access, harming predators. Scientists urge CCAMLR for stronger protections, including more #MPAs

📝New Research: Education in marine ecotourism. The #GreenFinsInitiative empowers the diving industry to minimise their impact & protect vital marine ecosystems. This workshop in Indonesia aims to expand the Green Fins within Indonesian #MPAs.

📝 A new study reveals the waters off northwest #Madagascar as a significant habitat for three endangered ray species. This finding underscores the need for increased protection, particularly through the establishment and effective management of #MPAs:

A new study suggests converting popular dive sites into fully protected #MPAs would significantly benefit marine life and local economies. Only a small % of existing MPAs are fully protected. 🐟

A small dive levy could generate billions for conservation.

🇺🇸@ucsantabarbara is launching #SeaSketch, a new web-based mapping tool, to aid California in evaluating proposed changes to #MPAs. This tool allows users to visualise how boundary adjustments and activity changes, could impact marine environments. 🐡🐠

🇰🇷 South Korea has expanded its conservation efforts by designating two new #MPAs off Jeju Island. One area specifically safeguards the critical habitat of the endangered Indo-Pacific bottlenose dolphin, of which fewer than 120 remain near the island.
