Happy #WorldOceanDay from Lamlash Bay, home of Scotland's only No Take Zone and community driven Marine Protected Area. Protecting areas of the sea from destructive fishing practices is highly effective at restoring ecosystems and fisheries and helps our oceans stay resilient in a changing climate.

The High Seas Treaty is an urgently needed international agreement to create Marine Protected Areas in the oceans.
It's been broadly agreed already by 193 countries but without proper ratification by 60 countries it wont happen.
The UK is among those countries that has yet to ratify.

World Ocean Day 2025
This World Ocean Day, we share our dedication to protecting our oceans through support of projects that tell important scientific and environmental stories. By catalysing these stories, we are taking action in marine research, conservation and education. Weaved together, these offer a way forward from the climate and biodiversity crises we're in.
