Dear all,
I have just returned from Argentina (terrific country!), and Tierra del Fuego in particular, where I was overjoyed to see an albatross, as well as many other animals and birds. However, many species of albatross are at a critical level because of an especially unpleasant form of fishing, often by pirate vessels. I believe that, as individuals who love the sea, we feel an affinity with the albatross (ancient mariner and all that), and I hope you will take the time to follow the link below, read the info and act upon it, perhaps by writing to your MP or Euro-MP. There is really not much time left, and for once, the solution is really quite simple.
