A few years ago, over 1.1 million EU citizens signed the „Stop Finning – Stop the Trade“ initiative, demanding an end to the shark fin trade across Europe. The EU Commission responded with promises: an impact assessment, a possible shark fin trade ban.

Next week is EU Ocean Week - a moment when EU institutions and NGOs will talk a lot about Ocean conservation and protection . This is our chance to remind them what still need to be addressed! 🦈
Swipe through - and *please* share this. The more of us speak up now, the harder it is to look away.
