@anamckellar Times editorial: #JenniRussell drew attention to a great #EnvironmentalCatastrophe: a mass #extinction of #MarineLife in the #NorthSea off #Teesside. A 30 mile section of coast has been turned into a #MarineDesert. #Fishermen report that catches of lobster, crab & other #crustaceans have collapsed. Response secretive & deeply unsatisfactory; #PublicConfidence at stake. Govt boasting of #MarineProtectedAreas while Britain's domestic waters among most #polluted in Europe.
