Slide 2 - Diapositive

During the lesson we will use these icons to identify the learning actions.
Illegal Fishing
Illegal fishing means that the fishermen enter the territorial waters of a country or regulated marine zone without permission or without a license for the fish they intend to catch.

They are stealing from these waters.
IMPACTS:

  • Local ecosystem
  • Artisanal communities
  • Ocean and biosphere
  • Human trafficking and illegal fishing


Slide 3 - Diapositive

So far, we have looked at the negative impacts we have had by eating fish.  Looking at how we impact:
    Local ecosystem
    Artisanal communities
    Ocean and biosphere
    Human trafficking and illegal fishing
Ask students what are the key things they learned from these lessons?

What products do you use
or consumer that are made
from marine wildlife?

Slide 4 - Carte mentale

If we want to have a positive impact on the global ecosystem, we need to consider what actions we take every day and how that might have an impact.
Let’s take a closer look at our own immediate actions.
Ask students “Which products do you use that are made from marine wildlife?”
List ocean based products like fish oil, cat food, shark fin soup, squalene

What are the impacts of
consuming / using these products?

Slide 5 - Carte mentale

Ask students “Based on what we have learned, what could be the impact of consuming/using these products?”
Illegal Fishing
Illegal fishing means that the fishermen enter the territorial waters of a country or regulated marine zone without permission or without a license for the fish they intend to catch.

They are stealing from these waters.
WHAT COULD YOU DO AS A GLOBAL CITIZEN TO REDUCE YOUR IMPACT ON THE OCEAN?



Slide 6 - Diapositive

Ask students: “if we want to minimise our impact as a global citizen how can we reduce our impact?”
Introduction to IUU fishing and the impact of overfishing.
How can we take action to intervene?

Slide 7 - Diapositive

Some of the issues we can help address by reducing the demand for fish and being careful not to purchase items that are likely to be from illegal sources, but how do we directly intervene to stop some of these issues?
Think about how we could help artisanal communities or stop human trafficking.

Introduction to IUU fishing and the impact of overfishing.
How can we support marine conservation?

Slide 8 - Diapositive

We have seen some of the work Sea Shepherd is doing to tackle illegal fishing in west Africa, supporting law enforcement.  How do you think you can help support organisations like Sea Shepherd?

Slide 9 - Vidéo

This video (3.21) shows how illegal fishing / overfishing can be stopped. This example shows Sea Shepherd’s Operation Sola Stella in Liberia.
