12.01.2022 congrat to all winners, what and awesome night we all had

08.01.2022 At 2:34pm yesterday the world's second largest super trawler docked in Australia, despite having no license to fish in our waters and facing massive community opposition. It can fish with nets whose mouth stretches up to 100 meters high, 200m meters wide and 600m long - that's longer than the length of the Sydney Harbour Bridge. It vacuums up everthing in its way killing dolphins, seals, migratory sea birds and other protected species. But, there's one person who has the pow...er and authority to stop the super trawler from plundering our seas: Federal Fisheries Minister Joe Ludwig. Despite this issue being on the agenda for weeks, he's been dragging his heels and advised media on Tuesday that he was yet to make a decision one way or another on the super trawler. Let's help him decide! With your help an ad which shows the shocking by-catch of a super trawler can be run on Monday in The Australian, to show Joe Ludwig that Australians will not accept the super trawler's impact on our marine life: www.getup.org.au/stop-the-super-trawler Almost 78,000 people have signed the petition to stop the super trawler, begun by GetUp member Rebecca Hubbard on GetUp's new community campaigning tool, CommunityRun.org. As people come to understand the incredible damage the super trawler will do in Australian seas, they are moved to action. The shocking photo in this ad, provided by our friends at Greenpeace, was taken by a fisheries researcher whilst on board another Dutch-owned super trawler fishing off Mauritania in 2006. It's a stark and shocking reminder that super trawlers, with their enormous nets, are designed to catch everything it their path. The target species the ship wants are mackrel and redbait but there is no proven way to stop seals, dolphins and other marine life getting trapped and crushed in the enoroumous net. Scientists also say that the 18,000 tonnes of fish the trawler could be allowed to catch is far too high and based on outdated information - concluding there is not a scientific case to allow the trawler to fish in Australian waters. The person who has responsibility to stop the super trawel is the Fisheries Minister, Joe Ludwig. Each of us can help make Joe Ludwig's decison a lot easier by making sure the implications of his decison are widely known. Can you chip in to get this ad in The Australian?
