Greenpeace patrols English Channel against destructive fishing
Greenpeace organisers at sea around Newhaven are attempting to guard British waters from the environmental damage caused by destructive fishing.
The environmental group are conducting a six-month operation to protect the seabed in the English Channel, called Operation Ocean Witness.
The six month operation, involving a new Greenpeace ship called Sea Beaver, will patrol the UK’s protected areas off the south coast and do, what they believe, the government has so far failed to do – protect the UK’s marine protected areas from destructive fishing.
