Today I learned that #Krill is primarily used for feed in #Acquaculture 😳

Neue #AWI-Studie zeigt, wie ein nachhaltiger Umgang mit #Krill im Südlichen Ozean aussehen kann. Das Konzept zum Management der Krillbestände arbeitet eng mit der Fischerei zusammen. #Antarktis #CCAMLR

Lachszucht auf Kosten der Pinguine

#Krill ist #Nahrungsgrundlage für #Wale – und #Seevögel. Doch riesige Fang­flot­ten bedrohen die Bestände. Die Ant­ark­tis-Kom­mis­si­on sucht bis Ende Oktober nach Lösungen

Schafft es die Weltgemeinschaft, eine wichtige Grundlage der marinen #Nahrungskette zu schützen?

Was z.B. gerade auch in den Ozeanen und Meeren passiert ist wie ein Tsunami.
U.a. durch zuviel Wärme und Übersäuerung sterben gerade die Nahrungsketten vom Anfang(!) her ab. #krill ...
Und wer sich z.B. mal mit den Veränderungen in der Ostsee oder dem Mittelmeer beschäftigt bekommt wohl eine Ahnung von dem was uns bevorsteht - *bevor* es zu noch mehr und zerstörerischereren Extremwetterereignissen kommt.
Proof of the Krill-Weasel conspiracy.

he smallest creatures in the Southern Ocean hold up entire ecosystems, and they’re being stripped away by industrial fleets.

China’s krill capacity has now surged to almost twice Norway’s (the largest krill-fishing nation in the world after China), fuelling an extremely dangerous race at the bottom of the food chain.

This isn’t just about krill. It’s about whales, penguins, and the stability of the world's climate.

Industrial krill fishing MUST end, and we need your support to defend Antarctica. Check our link in bio, or directly visit savekrill.com, to add your voice to @seashepherd’s campaign urging retailers to stop selling krill.
