Bluefin tuna: the scheduled end ...

.
addition to jeopardizing the economies of many countries, globalization is also wreaking havoc on the protection of animal species.

Thus the bluefin tuna, the big fish can live up to 20 years and reach 600 pounds, continues to be of great economic maneuvers between rich and emerging countries.

Last ICCAT meeting in Paris set the fishing quota allocated for next year to 12,900 tonnes of bluefin tuna. An unfortunate result since this figure leaves about 30% chance the stock to recover by 2020 ...


There are three species of bluefin tuna in the world:

- The northern bluefin tuna or Atlantic bluefin tuna or simply: Thunnus thynnus

- The Southern Bluefin Tuna: Thunnus maccoyi (classified as Critically Endangered)

- The Pacific bluefin tuna: Thunnus orientalis

Each species forms an independent fish stock. Each is overfished most often during the breeding season where it brings together.

In 2006, the International Commission for the Conservation of Atlantic Tunas (ICCAT - ICCAT is the acronym in English) showed that the ability of fishing of bluefin tuna in the Mediterranean greatly exceeded the capacity production of the resource.

early 2010, France has taken an official position to ban international trade of bluefin tuna in the Mediterranean but requested a delay of eighteen months for the implementation of this measure (maintenance of fishing "coastal" with 10% of fishing quotas for eighteen months).

Greenpeace and other environmental NGOs have felt this too long because, according to assessments of the Scientific Committee of ICCAT, there are now only less than 15% of the original population, which puts the species in very critical position, not least from the point of view of the collapse of its genetic diversity Factor (ecological resilience if one wants a rapid recovery of populations).

And according to the WWF denounces heavy overfishing exacerbated by illegal activities, bluefin tuna in the Mediterranean could disappear by 2012.

While the international community has pledged that all fish stocks are sustainably harvested by this date at the International Convention on Biological Diversity in Nagoya, is an extremely negative signal that ICCAT has just sent. By adopting a fishing quota for 2011 almost equal than this year, ICCAT show that only the premium short-term economic interest of industrial fishing. Negotiations have been reduced to discussions of carpet dealers around figures and calculations of probability. There was never any question of protection of a species ...

This very concrete case of bluefin tuna shows that international commitments on marine strategy, are not applied.

In addition, Bruno Le Maire and French fishermen lose. Since the beginning of negotiations, France, speaking through his Minister of Agriculture and Fisheries, has defended a maximalist position on the overall fishing quota. She brought with her the whole European Union. France had hoped and be given a deadline for the payment of its debt: 1 500 tons of fish out of its quota in 2011 and 2012. This rebate is in excess of quota by more than 100% of which are guilty tuna French in 2007.

The French request was rejected. This means that the 2500 tonnes of French quota for 2011, the tuna will be allowed to fish "approximately" 1,000 tons of fish.

Greenpeace estimates that 1,000 tons should be allocated primarily to artisanal fishermen, not the tuna purse seine fishing industry alone is responsible for exceeding quotas in 2007.

With this losing strategy in which it was locked, not only France betrays the commitment made in Nagoya, but leaves only a very small probability the stock to recover by 2020. If France had always supported a lower quota and closing the purse seine fishing, all fishing nations have been in that situation, the resource was preserved and a conflict with the European Commission avoided.

Today French fishermen are the only ones to remain alongside and bluefin tuna is in very bad shape ...

Simcity 4 1.1.638 Patch

Cold weather, but the heart is bleeding Stop work


These days, I move a lot ...

Utopiales After I went to the salon Lenvor, near Brest. A very nice room, housed in a bright room where booths and the aisles were pleasantly arranged. The weather helps, I could not linger as long as desired to make the turn, but in truth, I went there mainly to make a visit to my editor Alexis Lorens, editions of Riez.

I was able to retrieve my copy of Another Christophe Nicolas, who shone under the lights and being noticed in my second photo. We talked about books and projects Laugh. Without revealing large scoop Memories of Retrocity , it'll be something.

For cons, I'm really a drag, I'm not pointing my GGG .

Tomorrow I go to the Convention CoCyclics 2010, and the Salon de Montreuil Saturday. We will say that it works hard behind the scenes. I must prepare my little speech galvanized the troops. And I'm heating the machine sewing ... ^ ^

Is that news is my thing?

Illustration by Moon's new "For Men"
Frankly, I think not. Those who have followed my facebook page have noted how much I struggled on my last short text. The first news I wanted to do was immediately transformed into the universe that completely exceeded, another novella to store it in my books ...

This leads me to seriously rethink my approach to these texts. before starting write * ALSO, I laid a number of short texts, but I was in a study mode style, without any constraint that make me happy and thinking shorter.

However, if I consult my books, the result is there. Often my writing "short" and beyond are a call to see larger.
  • "For Men" will one day be a scenario of graphic design or a novel.
  • Bazabel Airlines has inspired me a whole world shifted that I wrote the beginning ...
  • At Out of the Shadows, originally published by New Night, has become a full-fledged novel.
  • Three men in a cave called a series of comic episodes that I think back regularly.

I will pick up Volume 1 of the Chronicles Siwès

Forced to work on a new one, I put aside my manuscript for a good big fortnight. This does not mean he has left me in peace. Most of my wanderings have brought me inside, again and again, even in my dreams ... It's like that, Siwès inside me.

Et .. ?
Otherwise, as everywhere in France, it's cold and snow at home.

How To Wash With A Yeast Infection

criticism

2010 and 2011 are two great years for some young writers who attend CoCyclics. Their first novel was published. It's pretty good in the end to pass later, a bit like oral tray. I benefit from the experience of others. ( I recall that you can pre-order my novel here .). I observe what happens with the same caution that my cat when I offered him other than his usual kibble in his bowl.

The post-release ... (I speak in my own name.) We do not think that much when you're waiting. We remain focused on the publication itself. Go, go far as to say that this is a bit of obsessive ... Nothing unusual for a first novel. To continue the digression, I hope the wait will amplify the joy of the moment itself when I shake the book to my heart. Then I will run into the garden waving it to the cows around the admire. Finally, if they are outside, because there, because of the snow they were harvested.

So, without friends, I would be focused on the anticipation of this new fee in the life of At Out of the Shadow . If I am using the study of my own person, egocentric as it may seem, I notice that it is recurring in the aspiring writer: it anticipates the end of each stage, but not necessarily the next. For example, when writing the first jet, the anxiety is whether we will finish it. Then, if the correction will end one day, then if the result will survive the beta-reading, then if we will eventually send it to publishers, then if we will finally get a positive answer, then how will be the cover upon ... and by the way, how the corrections will happen?

But once the exit is near, it's more anxiety, how the novel will he be welcomed? The worst thing is that nobody notices. Anyway. It happens to criticism.

criticism has nothing to do with the beta-reading. Normally, if you've done your job with your editor, notice the player must enter the realm of the subjective: anything goes, themes, characters, style, history, everything. Could that someone one likes 100% of your choice. Even when you love a book, you just think a bit to find things you do not agree. Moreover, to my reading, I made a firm decision not to put myself in an optical shelling, so as not to spoil me what I liked.

The problem is even argued that critics are writing for other readers, not for the author. This is normal, the author is not the text, must be able to speak without jargon. Except that the relationship between author and text are very narrow. We do not bump months or years on a project like this without feeling bruised when a player hates what has been produced, for whatever reason and although he is entitled.

(note: that's why I will not read the good reviews published ALSO rl I am optimistic. I am willing receive direct all returns polite, honest, highly disapproving as you like, this is not the same thing, because a priori, it will be made différemment.Vous agree that if you talk to me about my book, you will most of tweezers in my absence. Kind, instead of telling me, that's all rotten, frankly, monsters me I find it super lame, I do not even know how to read stories as preposterous let alone write! ", You'll want surely a delicate "really, I'm sorry, monsters, this is not my thing." It's less offensive.)

back to our sheep. What worries me most is the question that sometimes generates these reviews. Kind, what good writing or getting published if I find some texts as null? Or, how love really, how many are disappointed? Should we risk disappointing so many people?

To me, this is not a good question. Are we going to stop selling chocolate because some are resistant? No. Or, if you look at the proportion of readers who hate the French fantasy or science fiction, does this mean that we must remove these types of market? NO.

Second, how should we call into question following the criticism? If there is any criticism positive, obviously. But I tend to advocate caution, do not try to please everyone. It is also about identity, not mine.

Bransdford Nathan said Be yourself.
"Queries, manuscripts, correspondence: The Absolute Best Thing You Can Do Is To just be yourself."

I agree. What makes a good text is an author who gives him a clean tone. He must love his lyrics beyond criticism. In my case, when I think At Out of the Shadow , I know I shall never cease to love the pretext that one critic hated it.

Are these strong reflections, better cash out negative opinions? Hmm, I'll be presumptuous to believe that this does not affect me. Knowing me, I just hope that I will want to drown myself in work. It will be good for CoCyclics and Siwès. In any case, it does not stop me.

The Dark Side of the Force, no doubt.
