Say no to trawling

Trawling is a fishing practice in my opinion Neanderthal, based throwing a net into the sea drag all that is within it, with over 80% of discarded fish, which is killing the sea and species living in it, but if this was not enough after swept surface is now performing this technique in the deep waters destroying endangered species, corals and marine life all in its path,

To raise awareness of this technique as destructive Lush and Bloom Association have joined in a campaign to protect our marine heritage of this utter destruction,

To capture ten species on the high seas are carried on their networks over a hundred that are discarded, devastating the sea, practical background that is much closer than we think in our own European waters,

Within deep water fish have a more speed up life, has a short life of between 3 and 5 years anchovies and sardines and between 6 and 9 tropical tuna, doing reproduction more usually, unlike in deep water where life is much longer and there for the species reach more than a century of life, with these levels of reproductive life is much slower so that this fishing is far more destructive,

Species that often live in coral sponges along with hundreds even thousands of years, even with corals more than 4,000 years old, corals are torn away with the nets and thrown overboard as waste from fishing,

To combat this practice so destructive Bloom has been fought for 10 years by commissioning independent studies and raising awareness to the general public and political forces,

Lush has wanted to join this fight with a very nice action to raise awareness, on September 10 in sync with various capitals of Europe, recreated one of the species affected by the trawling as body painting and then recreate the destroying it by wiping it with a sponge,

The purpose of this awareness is to completely eliminate this type of fishing is legal today, and keep our seas,

I leave the video of the event that we do in the shop Lush Fuencarral in Madrid, where I did a jellyfish in bodypainting then we destroy to raise awareness,

See you tomorrow, be happy,
