Campaigners are urging French President Emmanuel Macron and EU Commissioner Costas Kadis to take action against destructive fishing practices, particularly bottom trawling, in Europe's protected marine areas. The campaign, Protect Our Catch, highlights the environmental damage caused by bottom trawling and calls for stricter protections in French waters, especially as France prepares to host the UN Ocean Conference. The letters emphasize the need for genuine marine protected areas and enforcement of existing EU regulations to safeguard marine biodiversity and support small-scale fishermen.
