Saving the Deep Sea

By Andrew David Thaler, on May 25th, 2011

The Deep Sea Conservation Coalition (DSCC), an alliance of over 70 international organizations working to promote the conservation of deep sea biodiversity, has officially launch their blog – Save the Deep Sea.

We all care about the wondrous life that exists in the deep sea – both known and unknown – and we all recognize that working together will have far more impact than going it alone. Since our start in 2004, we have been working hard to put an end to highly destructive deep-sea fishing practices and to protect highly vulnerable deep-sea species and habitats.
