Esperanza Crew Member Creates a Lamp from Reconstructed FAD Beacon in the Indian Ocean

A Greenpeace crew member makes the first FAD lamp prototype. The lamp is made from reconstructed parts from a FAD (fish aggregating device) beacon, utilising the beacon's solar panels and batteries. These lamps will eventually include a USB charger and will be given to local communities affected by overfishing in Madagascar.
Greenpeace continues to recover FADs on an expedition in the Indian Ocean to peacefully tackle unsustainable fishing. The marine snares recovered have all been placed by vessels supplying Thai Union.

Esperanza Targets Destructive Fishing in Indian Ocean

Greenpeace is in the Indian Ocean to peacefully tackle unsustainable fishing by the world’s largest tuna company, Thai Union. With some tuna stocks in the Indian Ocean, such as Yellowfin, on the brink of collapse due to overfishing, the expedition is exposing Thai Union’s destructive fishing methods which contribute to overfishing and harm a range of marine life including sharks and juvenile tuna.

Activists aboard the Esperanza document and peacefully oppose the destructive practices of fishing vessels supplying Thai Union, to prevent the indiscriminate harm caused to marine life. Throughout the tour, Greenpeace crew recover FADs (fish aggregation devices) placed by vessels supplying Thai Union.

Supplying one-fifth of the world’s tinned tuna, Thai Union owns major brands around the world, including John West (UK and Netherlands), Chicken of the Sea (US), Petit Navire (France), Mareblu (Italy) and Sealect (Thailand).
