An Italian Tuna purse seiner waits for the Bluefin Tuna spawning season to start in the Mediterranean Sea north of Lybia.

They would create a global network of Marine Reserves across 40% of the world's oceans to give the oceans a chance to recover from decades of large-scale industrial exploitation.
