Getting confirmation of the scale of the problem and considering the lack of effort driven by greed from certain people was hard to witness. However, to see so many important and influential people gathered together with the sole purpose of ensuring not only the well-being of our seas, but also of the social and economical aspect behind global fisheries...gives me hope! ~ A massive thank you to Manuel Barange, Director of FAO of the United Nations for the invite, Alessia Laurenza, FAO and Angel Napolitano to have made it happen!!!」11月21日 23時10分
