An evening in the 'Last Ocean'

I have just spent an incredible evening with Erich Hoyt, Rob Lott, Peter Hall, Mel Salmon and a cinema full of friends and colleagues with the Director of the Last Ocean. It was great catching up with some old friends, such as Claire Bass, Richard Page and Barbara Mass.

This film is an incredible exposé of a potential disaster in the Southern Ocean where an Olympic fishery for the tooth fish, or Chilean Sea Bass as some know it, is on the verge of destroying a pristine area. 

This is one of the last areas of the world where human impacts are minimal but growing. We can do something about it, CCAMLR is meeting in a few days in Germany and we can help affect the decisions they take.

Please help us and ASOC and the Last Ocean Trust protect this remarkable part of the world.
