Seas of Change: The Poros Summit on industrial fish farming

Cata and Agus, who coordinate the GSFR, were invited to co-sponsor Seas of Change – “The Poros Summit of Sea Industrial Fish Farming”. They also participated in the event together with some of GSFR’s members. At Seas of Change, communities, political representatives, scientists and NGOs from across the world gathered together to discuss the growing threat of industrial carnivorous fish farming.

Main goals:

* Come together & share information towards our common goal of protecting our environment and economies

* Collective action to demand change at the legislative level

Events like Seas of Change are amazing opportunities to team up against an industry that causes serious damage. Thank you @Rauchfoundation and @katheti.gr for stepping up organising this event and for giving us the chance of sharing our experience.
