And together, we form a determined team ready to undertake a concrete rescue plan in response to the threat of trawling fishing.
Since then, important achievements have been obtained that were decisive not only to protect and care for key habitats and species in our country, but also to lay the foundations on how we should continue to do so in an increasing number of territories.
The first Marine National Parks in Argentina were created: Yaganes and Namuncurá Burdwood Bank II, unique areas of high biological productivity with diverse and key habitats and species. We worked to make visible and emphasize the importance of Península Mitre, in Tierra del Fuego, which finally became a Natural Protected Area in 2022, thus achieving, after more than 30 years, the legal protection of the largest carbon capture point in Argentina, a key element in the fight against the climate crisis.
The installation of the salmon farming industry in the Beagle Channel waters in the province of Tierra del Fuego was banned by law, making Argentina the first country in the world to do so.
We have a past, a history, a long journey taken that makes our current experience and motivation remain solid, and we have decided to continue to put it at the service of new projects and challenges in the hope of building a new possible and necessary connection with nature.
WE ARE A GROUP OF PEOPLE GATHERED BY THE CALL TO PROTECT OUR ARGENTINE SEA.
