🎉 HUGE NEWS: The EU Court has confirmed marine protected areas must be PROPERLY protected from bottom trawling! Countries must act to fulfil their legal duty to safeguard these areas from destruction. This is an absolute WIN for our ocean. 🙌 1/2 clientearth.org/latest/press-o…

Labour promised to restore nature. Instead, their Planning Bill contains a licence to destroy it. We offered solutions. We’re done waiting. Part 3 of the Bill would gut the laws protecting our most precious habitats & species. Without significant change, it must be scrapped.

A few pictures of the paddle steamer SS Waverley's visit to Ullapool yesterday, celebrating 50 years since its restoration having been bought from CalMac Ferries for £1 !

9 years ago at Orca Watch in Scotland, Marine Connection co-founder Liz Sandeman met a young boy called Finlay Pringle. Since that time, he has become a true marine conservationist and climate change activist. Megan McCubbin UllapoolSharkAmbassador Steve Backshall Chris Packham

Climate strike week 336 #climatestrike #fridaysforfuture #ClimateJusticeNow #PeopleNotProfit

Sharks have ruled the seas for over 400 million years! This #WorldOceanDay, join us in celebrating these ancient ecosystem engineers, essential to keeping the ocean healthy, balanced, and full of life 🌊🦈💙 #TheSharkSwim #UNOC3

Sharks are essential for biodiversity. Here’s how: 🦈 They regulate fish populations 🐟 They prevent prey species from overgrazing habitats 🌿 They protect coral reefs and seagrass beds 🌊 They keep marine food webs in balance

We get to choose what kind of relationship we have with the ocean 🌊🌎🐠 One choice brings life, beauty, and resilience; the other, devastation 👇

We found a message in an irn-bru bottle on the Isle of Ulva...but what happened next! Watch the video and check out our post on our Instagram @scottishcoastalcleanup

History will be damning that we mostly left climate activism to children and teenagers.

The sign almost bigger than me when I started climate striking on 14 December 2018 !

🚨Scottish seal populations plummet! 🦭 Numbers fell by 20% in 5 yrs on Scotland's west coast, long considered their last UK stronghold Lack of food is likely fuelling the decline. We need a sustainable approach to fishing - now. #EndOverfishing bbc.co.uk/news/articles/…

A nice positive affirming evening at Scottish Southern Energy HQ in Perth for the Powering Futures award ceremony. This new education initiative recognises attainment as opposed to achievement (passing exams). Very proud to be one of the first recipients of the Ken Muir award.

A man has been bitten after catching a sandbar shark on a Florida beach. Our thoughts go out to the shark 🦈. We wish this essential ecosystem engineer a speedy recovery & hope the injuries are not too serious, assuming the shark survived this ordeal.🪝 mirror.co.uk/news/us-news/m…

Be the awesome person your dog believes you to be. Pick up a few bits of litter on walks to protect animals, communities & the environment. It feels great. 💚🐾 #dogsofx #dogcharity #litter #environment #volunteering #mentalwellbeing #lovedogs

Happy to report that I have been accepted to study for an Environmental Sciences degree at UHI Inverness starting in September !

Photo from my 18t birthday trip out on CalMac Ferries Loch Seaforth to Stornoway. In total we saw 330 Common Dolphins, 9 Minke whales (incl. 2 lunge feeding) & 35 Harbour Porpoise, all recorded on excellent Hebridean Whale & Dolphin Trust app Birthday is next week but I will be at Uni by then

Took part in the latest North West Highland Beach Clean on Saturday. In 5 hours, 18 volunteers removed 332 kg of rubbish from Balchladich beach in Assynt. 63kg of the hard plastic was taken back to Ullapool harbour for recycling in their Fishing For Litter skip.
