Help us fight this scourge! Beverage container deposit systems are able to prevent millions of containers reaching our oceans, thus reducing the negative impact on the marine environment.\u00a0In 2018, Portugal committed to implementing a beverage container deposit system, but it has to be implemented in the best possible way. Sign our petition and demand that the government adopts, by the end of the year 2021, a comprehensive and ambitious system, including plastic, but also glass bottles, cans and aluminum.

Neither can we!<\/p>\n <\/strong><\/p>\n Sharks and Rays: Guardians of the ocean in crisis: <\/strong>Sharks and Rays live in the ocean for more than 400million years and are crucial for healthy, diverse and productive marine ecosystems. Unfortunately in the last decades, due to overfishing, bycatch and rising demand for shark and rays products, like meat or liver oil, our guardians of the ocean are in crisis. Portugal ranks third in the european countries with more shark and rays captures and almost half of our shark and rays species are now threatened. Sign our commitment to not consume shark and ray products until they are effectively protected and our activities at sea don’t threaten their survival. They are much more important to our ocean than on our plate.<\/p>\n Manifesto Refil:<\/strong> Have you ever felt as your hands are tied because you don’t have an option to reduce your plastic waste?

EU is a major player in the exploitation of sharks and as inspections at sea are scarce fins are still illegally retained, transshipped, or landed in EU. We aim to end the trade of fins in the EU including the import, export and transit of fins other than if naturally attached to the animal\u2019s body. As finning prevents effective shark conservation measures, we request to extend REGULATION (EU) No 605\/2013 also to the trade of fins and therefore ask the commission to develop a new regulation, extending \u201cfins naturally attached\u201d to all trading of sharks and rays in the EU.<\/span><\/p>\n \u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" NGOs are working hard on protecting the ocean.

End Faroese Whale and Dolphin Hunts: <\/strong>On September 12th, more than 1,400 Atlantic White-Sided Dolphins and dozens of juveniles were killed in one single mass killing event in the Faroe Islands. This is the largest dolphin hunt in the islands\u2019 history and possibly the largest single hunt ever undertaken worldwide. It happened in European waters at the doorstep of the European Union which grants these marine mammals the highest protection status and prohibits any direct takes.<\/p>\n
