Today is World Ocean Day, a perfect moment to spotlight , one of the incredible organisations we’ve recently added to our growing portfolio of 1% for the Planet pledges.
One of the world’s most ambitious environmental organisations, ClientEarth are committed to using the power of the law to protect the planet and communities most affected by environmental degradation.
ClientEarth were delighted to achieve a landmark win to protect one of Europe’s most important marine sanctuaries: the Dogger Bank. The Netherlands’ largest nature area, the Dogger Bank is also known as ‘the nursery of the North Sea’.
In May, the Dutch court ruled that bottom trawlers can no longer fish their part of the marine sanctuary without a permit.
This is the first known legal decision in which a court has confirmed that governments are responsible for regulating the impact of bottom trawling on marine protected areas.
We are proud to be supporting an organisation dedicated to the legal fight for a healthy, protected ocean. Check out for more information about their work.
