Overexploitation (such as hunting and fishing) and habitat loss caused by human activity were named the two biggest threats to all migratory animals.<\/p>\n\n<p>Greenpeace Aotearoa oceans campaigner Ellie Hooper says it\u2019s clear urgent action is needed.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cIt\u2019s devastating to see how destructive fishing and pollution are putting life on this blue planet at risk, including creatures that visit the waters of Aotearoa.<\/p>\n\n<p><br>\u201cThe threat of extinction for amazing creatures such as the Southern right and humpback whale, and the Toroa (Antipodean albatross) is very real, but there are solutions on the table that can turn this around.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cCreating a network of fully protected ocean sanctuaries on the high seas would allow these animals places to rest and feed on their epic voyages across the ocean. To do this, we need governments to act with urgency &#8211; and ratify the Global Ocean Treaty now.\u201d<br><br>In 2023 UN member states agreed on a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/aotearoa\/story\/we-won-a-global-ocean-treaty-but-what-happens-next\/\">Global Ocean Treaty<\/a> which, once implemented, would allow for the establishment of vast ocean sanctuaries in international waters, where destructive activities such as fishing and mining are outlawed.\u00a0<\/p>\n\n<p>The New Zealand government was an <a href=\"https:\/\/www.greenpeace.org\/aotearoa\/press-release\/greenpeace-celebrates-new-zealands-commitment-to-global-ocean-treaty\/#:~:text=The%20historic%20Treaty%2C%20which%20UN,mining%20would%20be%20off%20limits.\">early signer of the Treaty <\/a>in September but has yet to ratify it into law.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cNear and far, the ocean is in crisis,\u201d says Hooper.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cAll of us care about protecting wildlife like whales and seabirds and the overall health of our blue planet. But we need leaders to act.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cWe need New Zealand to ratify the Global Ocean Treaty so that protected areas can be created to safeguard these migrating creatures and the ocean at large. This is our best shot at reversing their decline.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cThis new report has listed the New Zealand storm petrel, southern rockhopper penguin, New Zealand sea lion and Pacific bluefin tuna as globally threatened, and closer to home, we\u2019ve seen reports of a thousand starved <a href=\"https:\/\/www.rnz.co.nz\/news\/national\/508282\/nearly-1000-fur-seals-found-dead-in-kaikoura-in-five-months\">New Zealand fur seals<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cUrgent change is needed.&nbsp; The government must look at the evidence and listen to the vast majority of New Zealanders who want strong ocean protection, not more decline.&nbsp;<\/p>\n\n<p>\u201cThere is no time to waste, and they must get on with enacting real ocean protection rather than pandering to short-term commercial fishing interests that put profit before the health of us an this planet.\u201d<br><br>This week, Minister of Oceans and Fisheries Shane Jones dined with commercial fishing industry bosses, some of whom have donated to Jones\u2019 political campaigns. The Minister says he wants to <a href=\"https:\/\/newsroom.co.nz\/2024\/02\/13\/seafood-industry-donors-lobby-jones-over-wine-and-oysters\/\">advocate for the commercial fishing industry<\/a> in his
