Surfers Against Sewage acts as the secretariat for the group, briefs and informs the members and sets the agenda for each meeting.

The group has to date focused on a people and planet approach, having been initially formed after the delivery of the Protect Our Waves petition, which gathered over 55,000 signatures of support from surfers and other recreational water users, calling for better protection of our beaches and oceans. The petition was delivered to 10 in October 2013.

The APPG is ocean conservation focused and currently covers some the most urgent environmental issues facing our oceans including marine plastic pollution, climate change, water quality (including diffuse pollution and sewage impacts) and the threat of coastal developments. However, these are just the current issues, which are reviewed, and the key aim of the group is to protect our beaches and oceans, and particularly sites of special importance from a recreational or ecological perspective.

We have seen that we are stronger together and that must act to protect the waters that give this planet life. our voice has more impact and more weight in Parliament has been made, both through policy that acts when it’s united as one. The principle of collaborative to tackle climate change and through specific marine working applies so clearly to the issue of marine protection conservation legislation. The Climate Change Act, which - oceans know no boundaries or borders, and what better celebrates its 10th Anniversary this year, has been way to reflect that than by combining forces. instrumental in emissions reductions over the past decade, leading to a more than 42% reduction in emissions since Climate Coalition 1990. Ratifying the Paris Agreement - which provides a framework for governments to keep global warming well below 2 degrees - was another strong signal that the government is committed to protecting the life we love from climate change.

Encouragingly, there is also cross-party support on marine conservation in UK waters both near and far. 50 marine conservation zones have been set up in English waters and 282 MPs recently signed a charter pledging their support for the Blue Belt policy, which aims to protect 4 million square kilometres of ocean in British Overseas Territories.

There is so much more to be done, however. Parliament has made steps in the right direction, but we need to ensure that their ambition doesn’t weaken. We can all make an impact through our own lifestyle choices, but MPs have the power to make the legislative changes that are key if we’re to safeguard the oceans that we love for future generations.

The Climate Coalition is the UK’s largest group of people dedicated to action on climate change. Made up of over 130 member organisations with a combined 15 million supporters between us, we are creating the biggest conversation about climate change our country has ever seen. Through our two annual flagship campaigns, Show the Love and Speak Up Week, we seek to protect the life we love from climate change and shift to a world powered by clean and secure energy within a generation.

Blue Marine Foundation (BLUE) exists to restore healthy oceans. Our focus is combatting overfishing by creating marine reserves, establishing new models of sustainable fishing and restoring marine habitats. BLUE’s aim is to see at least 10% of ocean under protection by 2020, with a long-term aim of 30% protected. Healthy oceans are vital for the future of humanity, not only to provide a future food supply for a growing population, but because complex ocean ecosystems absorb half the planet’s CO2 and produce nearly half its oxygen.

Brendan Godley is Professor of Conservation Science at the University of Exeter and leads the institution’s Marine Strategy. Based at the University’s Penryn Campus in Cornwall, his research and teaching focuses on the overarching theme of the conservation of marine biodiversity. This includes study of fisheries, marine pollution, climate change, marine protected areas and protected species. Recognising people are at the centre of all conservation problems and their solutions, he takes an ever more interdisciplinary approach investigating livelihoods and policy. He manages a large group working worldwide including the UK and the UK Overseas Territories, Africa and South America.
