THE OBSERVATORY
Weseayou is an observatory where everyone can check exactly where Greece is in relation to marine protection and in particular the creation of marine protected areas covering at least 30% of the Greek seas by 2030 (30X30 target).
They look like rays, but they are sharks. They are among the most threatened shark species in the world, and until just a few years ago, almost nothing was known about them in Greece!
The environmental organizations Hellenic Society for the Protection of Nature, Hellenic Ornithological Society, Pelagos Institute for Cetacean Research, Greenpeace, iSea, MEDASSET, and WWF Greece, congratulate the citizens and organizations of Magnesia who tenaciously defended their right to clean and vibrant seas and a safe environment, free from dangerous and polluting facilities.
World Turtle Day becomes an occasion to remember that their protection is a shared responsibility. ARCHELON invites citizens, tourists, and operators to contribute concretely with these simple actions: avoiding disturbance of nesting areas, reducing artificial lights, and reducing invasive activity on beaches.
iSea Press Release: Unregulated anchoring is severely degrading Posidonia meadows in the Inner Ionian Archipelago, with the impacts particularly evident around the area’s islets.
