Marine Conservation, Marinet and Save Our Fish!

Being near the North Sea, North Tyneside Friends of the Earth works very closely with Marinet, the marine conservation section of Friends of the Earth, their work at the moment focuses on four main campaigns:
  1. The implementation of the UK Marine and Access Coastal Act 2009
  2. The reform of the EU Common Fisheries Policy
  3. Marine pollution by sewerage outfalls
  4. Opposition to Offshore Aggregate Dredging
Central to this work is:
  • The Shoreline Management Plan
  • Marine Reserves
  • The eco-system based approach to marine management
  • Action centred on the EU Marine Strategy Framework Directive and OSPAR (the Oslo-Paris convention for the protection of the North East Atlantic
