Antarctica

Domain One

playCreated with Sketch Beta.
Vast, wild but extremely fragile. The coldest place on our planet is also one of the most affected by global warming and needs to be protected. The expedition focuses on exploring, documenting and surfing in the South Shetland Islands and the Antarctic Peninsula, in the area called Domain 1, which is being pushed to be declared a Marine Protected Area (MPA). Protected areas are very important to mitigate climate change and, in this case, also to regulate human activities such as concentrated fishing. This film helps to understand the importance of this area and the threats that affect it.
Antarctica is the only continent that belongs to humanity and it is our responsibility as inhabitants of this planet to take care of it.

DOMAIN ONE

The proposed Marine Protected Area of ​​Domain One includes two zones:
1. General Protection Zone. It covers two biologically rich areas (the Bransfield and Gerlache straits) and would prohibit krill fishing in the coastal feeding areas of Antarctic predators. 2. Krill Fishing Area. This zone would allow commercial krill fishing for member countries, under the management of CCAMLR (Convention on the Conservation of Antarctic Marine Living Resources) conservation measures.
CCAMLR is working to advance ecosystem-based fisheries management to ensure the long-term survival of the fishery and protect the many species that depend on Antarctic krill.
