Global Biodiversity in Crisis: How Sea Shepherd is Contributing to the Solution
Global biodiversity is in serious decline, with wildlife populations falling by 69% since 1970. The freshwater ecosystems are especially vulnerable, seeing an 83% decrease in wildlife. Marine biodiversity suffers from overfishing and illegal fishing, leading to the destruction of ocean ecosystems. Sea Shepherd has been active in marine conservation for over 40 years, working to protect endangered species like the vaquita and fighting against illegal fishing. Their efforts highlight the urgency to take action for the future of our oceans and the wildlife that inhabit them.
