This , we need your help to stop Nueva Pescanova from building the world's first octopus farm.

These animals would need 1000s of tonnes of wild-caught fish, harming marine life & our oceans.

Tell the Port Authority to close the octopus farm file ➡️ https://action.ciwf.org.uk/page/191409/action/1

Part 2: Fish are intelligent, despite the misconception that they aren’t as smart as other animals and have very short memories.

Fish are sentient animals – they're intelligent, feel pain and can suffer. Yet the welfare of farmed fish is severely neglected 💔

It’s a vicious cycle: factory farming intensifies climate pressure, climate chaos ensues and then farms face the consequences, putting animals and our food security at risk.

We can’t fix the climate crisis without ending factory farming.

This , demand action from the EU and sign the Good Food for All European Citizens’ Initiative: https://www.goodfoodforall.eu/

DID YOU KNOW? 🔎

Every year, 221 million pigs are farmed across the EU

And many mother pigs spend around half their life in a cramped cage.

It’s cruel and it has to end.

Inaction to reduce fertiliser pollution traps animals and farmers in unsustainable farming methods.

As agriculture ministers gather for the AGRIFISH Council in Brussels to discuss the EU Fertiliser Action Plan, our message is clear: nature-friendly farming is the real solution to farmers’ uncertainty.

If farming continues to rely on synthetic fertilisers, future price spikes will continue to threaten food production, increasing costs, and undermining food security.

The EU must not repeat the same mistakes made in land animal farming when developing its aquaculture sector.

This , we have a new position paper looking at how to improve the health of our oceans and ensure the welfare of billions of sentient aquatic animals.

Brittany Ferries are putting unweaned calves through gruelling 18+ hour sea journeys from Ireland to France - causing serious suffering.

In meetings with us and our partners, they admitted these journeys breached EU law - yet they continue anyway.

They are choosing profit over animal welfare. Calves are not cargo - it’s time for this cruelty to end for good.

Today the European Commission published its Fertiliser Action Plan.

This may support farmers in the short-term, but it fails to address a major, growing threat to Europe’s food security: our dependence on imported synthetic nitrogen fertilisers.

🚨 Nueva Pescanova want to build the world’s first octopus farm.

This would pose a serious threat to animal welfare, food security & marine life.

But we have a chance to stop it, by asking the port authority to close their application: https://bit.ly/4f8zEJm

Now is a crucial moment to stop Nueva Pescanova building the world’s first octopus factory farm.

The Spanish seafood company plans to :

Trap these amazing wild animals in barren underwater tanks, leading to extreme stress, aggression & even cannibalism.

Slaughter them in ice water, causing slow, agonising deaths.

Feed the octopuses with thousands of tonnes of wild-caught fish, depleting our oceans & impacting vulnerable coastal communities.

But we have a chance to prevent that from happening.

Nueva Pescanova applied to the Las Palmas Port Authority to build this farm - but they have not provided the detailed Environmental Impact Assessment in time. According to Spanish law, the port authority must now close their file.

With an email, you can stand up for octopuses and make sure this cruel, unsustainable farm is stopped.
