I just looked at the screen and saw 1000 names which feels completely surreal because I remember when it was just me sitting here feeling like nobody else noticed the dead turtles washing up on the sand. It is wild to think about all of you out there caring about this because the administration has been ignoring my emails for so long and maybe now they will at least have to look at the sheer size of this list.

I just spent the morning looking at photos of the beaches and it is honestly so heartbreaking to see how many people have reached out sharing their own sightings of the wreckage. I have been emailing back and forth with a few people who know the local policies inside and out because maybe we have been asking for the wrong things this whole time. It feels like we are shouting into the wind sometimes but please know I am still pushing behind the scenes even when everything feels stuck.

I just saw the count hit one hundred and I honestly thought I was seeing things wrong because that seemed like such a huge, distant mountain to climb for these turtles. It really makes me think about those poor creatures showing up on the beach in Episkopi and how someone somewhere actually has to listen when enough of us start pointing at the same problem.

Protect now and see the rewards later. It should not even be a discussion just look at other efforts around the world and the rewards that are being seen now.
This has gone on far too long-the turtles have no defence against humans; the issues of the fishing fraternity (entanglement in fishing nets/clubbing to death), plastic items in the sea etc need to be addressed immediately.
It's a little obvious I suppose really, but I am horrified at how few female Green & Loggerhead turtles are left in this world. But horrified isn't enough..terrified is nearer the mark. Please take care of them x
If there is anything I could do to help or anyone, please feel free to call me at 99811930

Animal abuse should be treated seriously. Only people without compassion would do this thing to another being. Every countries/businesses in this world really need to start taking animal welfare seriously.
Without a healthy and thriving natural world, both land and marine, we as humans are putting at risk our own existence on earth as without a healthy biosphere we have no future

It is cruel to kill a turtle deliberately. It is important to protect turtles

I love Sea turtles and would like if lucky enough one day to observe their hatching and releasing to water!
As I have already worked in a sea turtle protection project in Greece, I know how important it is to save the last remaining turtles in the mediterranen sea. They play an important role in the ecosystem of the sea.... it is your and our Job to protect this endangered specie before it is too late. Then they will never come back again.
Turtles is a miracle of nature! Let's save this miracle!

We are a part of nature, not sesperate from it. Killing nature to make a quick profit leaves nothing but concrete for future generations.
