"Last month at #CITESCoP19, world leaders voted to provide protections for 60 #shark species, including blue sharks. This decision means these species can only be traded if their stocks are proven to be sustainably managed. With the exception of a 2019 catch limit set under the jurisdiction of the International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (#ICCAT) #RFMO, #bluesharks are fished without any limits."

⏰ An early start to the day for a festive get together with the Communications INC team in London. So much to wrap up and celebrate as the #OceanSuperYear 🌊 comes to an end, hopefully with good news for 🦈 and #BlueNature 🐠 from #CITESCOP19 and CBD #COP15, and exciting plans for 2023.

If RFMOs are the responsible bodies to manage sharks THEN F*%&ING MANAGE SHARKS. RFMOs have been around for *decades* and have not managed #sharks like fisheries. You can't all of a sudden claim that RFMOs have a deep and abiding desire to do so. #CITESCoP19 #sharks Livestream here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=R4QPQRhNJ_I
