The plunder of our seas by industrial fishing is a monstrosity in which almost everyone unwittingly collaborates. For decades this truth has been deliberately hidden from us. Now at last the consensus is cracking.

IMAGINE asks #OceanRebellion how much damage a net as big as ten jumbo jets causes as it drags across the seabed. It catches everything in its path, destroys marine life, releasing the โblueโ carbon stored there. Bottom trawling emits more greenhouse gases than aviation

Over the past days I read many claims on the end of #globalisation, and on the #tariffs war being a chance for progressive agendas
I wonder what's the political economy backing up these claims. Sounds as if global #capitalism couldn't accommodate even high #tariffs.
