Greenpeace campaigners attempting to save North Sea cod from being pushed towards extinction plunged into the ocean 40 miles from land and trie to stop a Scottish trawler, called Endurance, by placing themselves in its course.In original language:Kabeljauw Actie NoordzeeGreenpeace campaigners ondernemen directe actie om trawlers te laten stoppen met het vangen van kabeljauw. Greenpeace heeft een zwemmer strategisch in de vaarroute van de Schotse trawler Endurance geplaatst, om het schip zo een halt toe te roepen. Op het bord staat: "Stop! Cod in Crisis" oftewel: "Stop! Kabeljauw in Crisis". Greenpeace roept niet alleen op tot een stop op het vangen van kabeljauw, maar ook tot het implementeren van zeereservaten.

The focus of the tour is on cod fishing which is particularly rife in these waters and is endangering the population of the species. Greenpeace fears that, if fishing for cod is allowed to continue, then cod will be wiped out completely in the North Sea. They call for the implementation of Marine Reserves which would specify areas where fish would be protected.
