Confiscating a FAD
Greenpeace activists confiscate a Fish Aggregating Device (FAD), possibly being used by the Korean Olympus purse seiner. Greenpeace is in the Pacific Ocean to defend the pockets of international waters between Pacific Island countries ? the Pacific Commons - as marine reserves from greedy fishing fleets intent on fishing out the world's last tuna stocks - the world's favorite fish. These mother ships, known as 'reefers', are a gateway for laundering tuna out of the region. Greenpeace advocates the creation of a network of marine reserves, protecting 40 per cent of the world's oceans, as the long term solution to overfishing and the recovery of our overexploited oceans.
A report was released that estimates that on top of the known fish catch, at least another 34% is stolen by pirates in the Western and Central Pacific.
