‘I wrote The Imperilled Ocean to show that the ocean’s story is also our own’

Laura Trethewey talks about her new book, The Imperilled Ocean: Human Stories From a Changing Sea, an illuminating, beautifully written, and important read, especially for Canada's federal legislators.

Author Laura Trethewey, pictured in Ladysmith, B.C., in 2015. 'I would encourage people to find others who care about the future of the ocean and create the most impact as a collective. Right now, the ocean needs humanity’s collaboration and imagination.' Photograph courtesy of Chloe Ellingson

Climate change clashing with human speed limit

A shark, pictured on Feb. 19, 2021, is hauled in as bycatch by crew onboard an Iranian flagged vessel fishing for tuna in the Northern Indian Ocean. These vessels often fish for tuna with seven-mile-long gill nets, fishing with a gill net over 1.5 miles is illegal. Greenpeace was in the Northern Indian Ocean to witness to the destructive fishing practices of under-documented fishing fleets which it is estimated cause the bycatch of 80-100,000 cetaceans per year, says Greenpeace.
