"Europe’s seabeds are so extensively destroyed that to find a reference for a healthy seabed ecosystem, researchers turned to historical records.
There are no surviving seabeds that meet the old descriptions."

Study finds bottom trawling nets 3,000 marine fish species, including threatened ones

Greenpeace AotearoaEmbarrassing. New Zealand is pushing to allow for more coral destruction on the high seas, out of step with other countries who are backing greater ocean protection.
