Plans for up to 30% of Irish waters to be designated as marine protected areas

  1. Other similar projects have been incredibly successful for restoring marine life to our oceans.

    Do it immediately, no need for any delays.

  2. Great

    Hopefully they also protect areas along the coast line for breeding etc.. lots of areas now have habitat removed for farming or houses/gardens

  3. My understanding is that MPAs don’t at all do what most people would expect them to do – bottom trawling, for example, an extremely destructive type of fishing, is perfectly legal within them.
