The Russian flagged vessel Krasnoselsk on the west coast of Svalbard. Its registered number is M0302 licensed for fishing in the Barents Sea, owned by COMSERV-FISH and probably looking for cod, haddock and by-catch. As climate change causes the Arctic sea ice to recede, Greenpeace sails north of Svalbard, to survey the poorly understood Arctic Ocean sea bed and to track and document fishing vessels from an industry that is encroaching on this fragile, unstudied ecosystem. Greenpeace is calling for the area of the Arctic Ocean historically protected year round by sea ice to be closed to all industrial activity, including destructive fishing.
