Congratulations to Stop Sea Blasts and Joanna Lumley on their successful campaign to stop old munitions being detonated at sea, a practice harmful to marine life. Today the government announced plans to use more environmentally friendly methods.

Marine Connection's Liz Sandeman recently joined Joanna Lumley and Stop Sea Blasts campaign team to hand in a petition at Downing Street relating to clearing unexploded bombs in UK waters - known to injure/ kill whales. Government is to pursue alternative methods of clearance.

Around the UK old munitions are detonated to clear the seabed & install wind farms, harming marine life. Stop Sea Blasts have been campaigning for an environmentally friendly option. Yesterday the govt announced this - congratulations to campaigners including Dame Joanna Lumley! ๐Ÿ‹

Yesterday I had the pleasure of meeting Joanna Lumley at Parliament to discuss the appalling practice of sea blasts and to support the work of Stop Sea Blasts. This campaign is crucial in Scotland especially 10 years after the tragedy at the Kyle of Durness.

As a supporter of the Stop Sea Blasts campaign, the WCA celebrates the news that Defra UK will be prioritising low noise methods of ordnance clearance, instead of detonations which are harmful to #whales and #dolphins. itv.com/news/2021-11-1โ€ฆ

I was excited to meet Dame Joanna Lumley outside Parliament earlier this week! My constituents and I are thrilled to hear that the Govt has agreed to take positive steps towards disposing of old munitions safely, in a way that will not harm marine life. Great work Stop Sea Blasts!

Brilliant to meet Dame Joanna Lumley, to help the campaign to Stop Sea Blasts. Their focus is to stop the detonation of expired bombs at sea as it damages the hearing of our marine life.

Great to hear about the Stop Sea Blasts Campaign Scottish Parliament. The detonation of expired bombs at sea must stop. This causes huge disruption to marine habitats and threatens the survival of whales and dolphins. To support this campaign, sign the petition: chng.it/m6VtY7v9VQ.

Fascinating to meet with Dame Joanna Lumley's Stop Sea Blasts campaign. There are 100,000 tonnes of unexploded ordnance in UK waters left over after WW1 and WW2 which need to be cleared but we must do it in a way that does not endanger marine species.
