A network of 68 pan-European organisations are constantly working together to find ways to reinvigorate our continent’s marine life.
One composite is
the BioRestore project, a French program conceived in 2012 that restocks wild coastal fish populations using elaborate scientific techniques. They have successfully managed to reintroduce 85 different fish species into three sites across the French Mediterranean - the next step is to lobby for their work to come under legal protection.
Last month the UK launched its largest
seagrass restoration project which will see eight hectares of seagrass planted across England’s south coast over four years.
