Huge fleet of 260 Chinese fishing ships discovered off Galapagos Islands, sparking fears they’re destroying unique marine eco-system

A unique part of the biosphere, where Charles Darwin mulled over his world changing theory of evolution. But they won’t care about that — just suck up that marine life, boys.

Don’t worry, the left-wing eco-warriors will soon put a stop to it — won’t they?

Huge fleet of 260 Chinese fishing ships is discovered off the Galapagos Islands sparking fears they will ‘suck the life’ from the unique marine eco-system

By Sam Baker For Mailonline, 28 July 2020

260 Chinese fishing ships have been discovered near the Galapagos Islands sparking concerns that they will damage the marine eco-system in the area.

Ecuador’s president Lenin Moreno had been tweeting over the weekend to boast about the security in place to protect the area surrounding the islands which he said is ‘a hotbed of life for the entire planet’.

However, the Ecuadorian Navy has confirmed that around 260 fishing vessels have been spotted 200 miles from the islands’ shores.

Blue Planet Society spokesperson John Hourston told Sky News that the Chinese vessels were sucking the life from the ‘biodiversity jewel’. Pictured: A Chinese lighting vessel operating in North Korean waters on July 22, 2020

Now, volunteer pressure group Blue Planet Society have voiced their concern that the ocean is being destroyed in real time, the Scottish Sun reports.

Spokesperson John Hourston told Sky News: ‘The threat that the industrial Chinese fishing fleet poses to the unique and spectacular marine life of the Galapagos archipelago cannot be overstated.’

He also said the vessels were ‘sucking the life from this biodiversity jewel’.

‘Marine life doesn’t recognise lines on a map. Unless the high seas are given protection, the ocean is in danger of becoming become a lifeless desert.’

In response to the fishing fleet a Protection Strategy has been put in place by former Mayor of Quito Roque Sevilla and ex-environment minister Yolanda Kakabadse, alongside a team of specialists.

The islands are home to a large number of different aquatic species such as giant turtles, flamingos and albatrosses and inspired Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution

Ecuador has now increased its naval patrols around the Galapagos Islands.

The islands are home to a large number of different aquatic species such as giant turtles, flamingos and albatrosses and inspired Charles Darwin’s theory of evolution.

Chinese fishing ships have strayed near the Galapagos previously and in 2017 one vessel was captured in 2017 in the Marine Reserve carrying 300 tons of wildlife.

Defence minister Oswaldo Jarrin said that the fleet is currently located in a corridor in international waters but that it is being kept under surveillance.

The Chinese and Japanese are fishing for years in all South and Latin American waters, they are draining the waters from fish, everybody know it but NOBODY is doing ANYTHING about it.

Hey…..we have a part in all of this……those wind farms out off the coast that the Left put there…..they are chasing fish away and messing up the electronics of fishing boats. Ask the fishermen…..they will tell you.
Then you’ve got those wind farms on land that heat up the ground around them and messing up crops……killing millions of migratory birds that eat seeds and drop them in their flight…..look for more bad crops.
We didn’t learn anything from when the bee population crashed…..as did the crops that they took care of with their pollen transferring.

They’ll be after the sharks. Goodbye tourism, already hit by the Chinese sourced coronavirus. And when the crews invade the Islands – likely after the giant tortoises – well the Chinese eat anything and everything – right? – they’ll take the Covid-19 virus with them to infect the locals. Seems like the Chinese can’t risk eating their own wildlife so they have started to invade other countries and eat theirs.

It’s in international water so there probably isn’t much that can be done,
unless Equador wants to claim ownership of the water.

It’s a shame. It looks so tranquil and beautiful there….

Shame on you! The fact that its in international waters does not mean we should allow environmental destruction that affects us and the rest of the world. Find your spine and think with your brain. This is about protecting the ecosystems that feed us and maintain our ecological resources. Pillaging must be stopped. The USA, hopefully in league with its allies, need to step up to the plate and implement the immortal words of Mrs. Reagan: “Just say no!”

The Chinese kill and eat anything that crawls, walks, swims or flies. They have no conscience about wiping out total ecosystems. They have factory ships 200 miles off the Northwest coast of the USA that are destroying the pelagic salmon and steelhead that make annual migrations in the North Pacific. The fisheries from California to Alaska are being devastated by these parasites. They have wiped out any life within their territorial waters with their ‘kill everything tactics’.

ChiComcs system is the UN choice for us IF Ametican leadership weakens to UN compliance.

Tho not with Trumpian anti UN/Commie type backbone in the White house.

As the Chinese are happy to exterminate rhinoceros’s and tigers just because their ancient leaders cannot get erections without “help” do any of you really think that these scum will see Galapagos as special? They will rip out its heart, denude the islands of life and food and not think twice about it. Any group who allows itself to hit 1.6 billion in number shows no respect for either man or nature. Like islam china is waging war on the world already and no one will admit it or do anything about tit.

Is that figure including the 1 million wiggers they keep as slave labor to fill Nike and other big corporation orders for sports shoes and other items?
I can’t stand Muslims for what they stand for…..but companies like Nike apparently have no problem with slavery……which should make all of us worry about what they are planning for us in the long run.

It used to be the Japanese Fishing Fleets who were raping and pillaging the worlds oceans including killing whales and long-lining. Now the Japanese have discovered Australian Beef and Four n Twenty Meat Pies,(although they did have to reduce the size for them), now it’s the Chinese Fishing Fleets doing the raping and pillaging of the worlds oceans and wiping out (and eating) whole Bat Colonies! (Virus carriers?). What’s next?

Well those discussions are good for folks to know of by the top ChiCom leadership.
However it is based on lies by them.

All mankind emanated from the Trigris / Euphrates rivers area and we all have exchangable blood types….ie = we are all human together.

The very Siberian peoples who came thru Alaska are part Euro as of DNA results.

Polynesians made it to S. America and were of mixed races from the start like Maura’s.
Not to forget African peoples in those Islands and Australia.
Moreover many discovered ancient Euro genetics are being found in the Eastern parts of the U.S.
ie = the 1st peoples are not Chinese – tho Eskimo peoples look similar and likely did?

CHINA withered on the vine despite millenia of robust dynasty’s based on slaving the own peoples like animals which they’d do again.

NO its Western Christian free enterprise and Liberty ideas that changed Korea, Japan then China = even now Vietnam.
There are more Christians in those nations now then in America.

Anything ChiCo-n’s think they can do to us WE can do more and better for EVERYTHING they have was given to or allowed to stolen from us.

African nations MAY “allow” some parts to be settled by Chinese = India never would.

Tho with the UN Globalist plans of using the ChiCom system secret plans would be considered tho not a guaranteed action….for a LOSE LOSE scenario with over a billion dead Chinese there and 10’s of million’s here + Europe etc is a non winner for them

WE must make Trump win and take both Houses to then kick out the UN for they are the core of a “Lebenscraum” world control system and have always stated so…!

The Dimms and RINOs have been in bed with the Chinese since the Clintons……now let’s see how their rabid environments like what this leads to…..give the Chinese an inch….and they will take 10 miles.

I bet they start screaming for President Trump to do something…..and if he did, they will vilify him no matter what he does.

I think they ought to give Biteme and his troops of idiots the job of how to keep the Chinese out of the islands.

With- 1.3 BILLION SHEOPLE it comes down to “them” or everyone else and in Atheist Commie world they must win and all ohers must. lose.

It means survival or 10-million a year Chinese folks forced to be starved to death a yr til having a feedable population….just as Mao did.

There’s no way they do not have every scenario for “Lebensraum” already worked out if theres no other way.
Aussie’a / Zealander’s + Aftica are definitely on that venues menue…!

Food is the biggest barter tool WE have and ChiComs can be brought to a forced fair-bargaining barter – IF – the U.S. maintains fiercely advanced and an unapproachable Defensive/Offensive network world wide.

Russia should be an ally to that degree for they have always feared 1,000,000,000 PLUS unstoppable Chinese as neighbors…tho as allies togetber under the UN would prove a super serious threat.

Japan also if not now secretly set up by us with nucs needs to be safegarded.
All to keep serious ChiCom thots of agression at bay.

With WWII Japan as an example to all Asia + Russia of what WE have done fightting 2 wars at once China can as has Japan work out prosperous survival within their own borders.

HOWEVER just if Japan ever allied with the ChiComs all bets are off…???
