Less than 2% of maritime workers are women.
In Antarctica, our crew is 50% women. π
Not a milestone.
Just the way it should be.
Womenβs rights were never given.
They were fought for.
Today we carry that strength to sea, defending the Southern Ocean. βοΈπ
#internationalwomensday
But today the #SouthernOcean is changing rapidly, industrial krill fishing is intensifying, and political deadlock is stalling protection.
Swipe to understand why this matters.
From Antarctica, we are witnessing the consequences firsthand. πππ§
For decades, #CCAMLR has been presented as one of the most advanced systems of international ocean governance.
Created to conserve Antarctic marine life through a precautionary, ecosystem-based approach, it was meant to act before ecosystem damage occurs.
We are here to document.
To sound the alarm π¨
And to push for laws that truly protect this place instead of allowing its exploitation β
With independent science on board and cameras rolling, we are gathering the evidence needed to defend this ecosystem.

π¬ Weβre excited to announce that the fifth episode of our web series "Edge Of the World: Krill Crisis" will premiere tomorrow at 7pm CET on our YouTube channel! π«
We will be sharing more about these vessels in the coming weeks, in our content and in our YouTube series, Edge of the World: Krill Crisis.
The fleet is expanding every year, with more vessels heading south. These are the ones currently operating here.
Stay informed. Stay engaged.
When we talk about ocean conservation, this reality is part of the picture. Knowing who is operating, and at what scale, matters. Transparency is the first step toward accountability.
This is not an abstract issue. It is happening right now. We are in Antarctica, witnessing these vessels every day as they plunder one of the last great wildernesses on the planet, surrounded by whales, penguins, and other wildlife ππ§π
In Antarctica, behind broad terms like βsustainable fisheryβ or βblue industryβ are very real factory supertrawlers π’ with enormous capacity, plundering krill, the main food source of one of the most fragile ecosystems on Earth βοΈπ§
π You love the ocean and want to protect it, but information about fishing vessels can feel distant and easy to overlook.
Follow the campaign through our web series Edge Of The World: Krill Crisis on YouTube. π₯ Filmed on board as the mission unfolds, it shares the human side of the crew and the science that guides our work. π¬
New episode every Monday at 7pm CET.

We are here to document what is happening in real time and to shine a light on the growing industrialisation of the Southern Ocean and on its most important species: krill, the foundation of this entire ecosystem.
Antarctica is no longer a distant horizon. Our campaign is now underway. βοΈπ
After a long transit south, we have reached the krill fishing grounds and, as expected, wildlife is everywhere. ππ§ Seabirds, seals, whales. Life concentrated in the same waters targeted by the industrial fleet.

Ushuaia is our final stop before Antarctica, a moment to breathe before heading back into the Drake Passage. Toward the cold. Toward the fleet.
This is where the journey shifts from transit to action.
Filmed and edited live on board.

We are in #Antarctica to protect krill, a tiny yet vital species that many depend onβsuch as whales and other wildlife in the #SouthernOcean. π¦π
Currently, large super trawlers are destroying this environment to fish #krill for an unnecessary market. We must stop this.
We created the Antarctic Krill Pledge to urge companies like Boots to stop selling krill and help protect Antarctica.
Now it is time for Boots to step up.

In Antarctica, krill supertrawlers are plundering one of the last pristine waters on Earth π Krill is the foundation of the Antarctic ecosystem. Remove krill, and the fragile balance of this ecosystem begins to collapse.
We recently launched our 2026 Operation Antarctica Defense campaign, aiming to safeguard Antarctica from Krill Super-trawlers that threaten it. π

Some companies still act like the ocean belongs to them. π
It doesn't.Β
Retailers like #BootsUK that keep ransacking the Antarctic ecosystem for profit do not deserve our support.Β
The world is moving on.
Some retailers already have.
