Ban the use of bottom net trawlers in UK waters

Ban the use of bottom net trawlers in UK waters — 16 signatures. Status: open.

Petition background

I want the Government to ban bottom trawlers in UK waters and enforce a no-trawling policy with them as, seeing the damage after swimming and watching documentaries, this needs to change and be stopped.

Additional details

This would help prevent and repair the sea bed and give nature a time to heal and help us protect the planet for future generations.
