Greenpeace report: Atlantic sanctuaries could shield leatherback turtles

Original: New Greenpeace report: Ocean sanctuary network could protect over a third of danger zones for vulnerable leatherback turtles in the Atlantic high seas

Greenpeace has released a new report finding that a network of ocean sanctuaries on the Atlantic high seas could protect more than a third of the danger zones for leatherback turtles, a vulnerable species that migrates across international waters. The environmental group is using the findings to press for a strong global treaty to protect marine life beyond national jurisdictions, arguing that targeted protected areas could sharply reduce risks to the turtles from fishing and other human activity.

Why now: The report lands amid ongoing international negotiations over a UN high seas treaty, giving campaigners fresh evidence for ocean protection.
