  1. 📰 Marine Reserves Now With Indigenous Co‑Management

    🌏 New Zealand: New marine reserves have been opened under a co‑management model that gives Māori communities a formal role in stewardship and conservation.

    🌊 The approach combines conservation goals with Indigenous leadership, helping protect marine ecosystems while strengthening long‑term community involvement.

    🤝 This is an example of the growing use of conservation that works with local knowledge and governance rather than relying solely on top‑down management.

  2. Shocking to read that Tassal has had a major fish-kill at its barramundi farm in the remote Buccaneer Archipelago/Cone Bay region of WA while simultaneously pushing ahead with plans to ramp up production. 
    What concerns me deeply is this expansion ambition — from roughly 2 000 tonnes a year to potentially 17 500 tonnes — in a glob­ally significant and delicate marine ecosystem. 
    The story doesn’t revisit the wider track‐record of salmon-farm related mortality and ecosystem impacts, yet the parallels are painfully obvious. We should be asking: are we repeating history rather than learning from it?
