This evening a very powerful talk by Guy Standing The Blue Commons ..rescuing the economy of the sea.. 

Very worrying facts which I will share has I digest all that was shared and read through the book. 

Every family, every grandparent, every parent, every grandchild and every teacher needs this book to understand how we are pushing our seas further into crisis... from mining sea beds to aquaculture that is failing to be designed with full ecosystem in mind .. in rush to profiteer imbalance is being created. 

Interesting how in the answer to who owns the seas we can go back into history into common law ... Roman Empire recognition of the value of the seas.. 

Blue Commons Rescuing the Economy of the Sea.. Penguin books

Good to be in OUR yes OUR people's parliament... it is not an exclusive club but a constitutional right to enter and attend debates, meetings .. though may not be in the Chamber the reason there is a public gallery is that YOU yes You have the right to be able to view debates ...on policies and acts of parliament... the Central Lobby is the power hub where YOU yes You can lobby slip your MP to discuss matters of concern .. you can even change the course of acts with collective lobby power..
