"That attention to the sea and its fish! More and more communication to better hide the degradation of coastal ecosystems, a few days of the rush to beaches, marinas, campsites and - with its share of pollution - a few days before the announcement of major reforms of the next Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) and - with its share of draconian measures prepared by the European Commission. In ever more cacophony, the marine trades are finding it increasingly difficult to exist - placed between two fires, one side, environmental organizations who demand ever more, and other land-based activities , agriculture, tourism, urbanization, pollution - that increasingly, fishermen and shellfish farmers do not even have to say the words days at sea - during International Ocean Week of Fish all fishing are pilloried for discharges at sea."
