AGP Executive Report
Last update: 11 hours agoWildlife Crime: A new report spotlights eel smuggling as a major organized-crime business, with Europol estimating about 100 metric tons of live juvenile eels moved each year from European rivers to Asian markets—fuelled by soaring prices and leaving many waterways eerily eel-free; the European eel is now critically endangered after a steep population collapse. Marine Research & Biodiversity: The UK’s Blue Belt Programme is funding lab work tied to the “Beyond the Reef” survey around Anguilla and other Caribbean UK Overseas Territories, with Cefas seeking a supplier to process water-sampling filters and return metabarcoding sequence data to map fish and shark presence. Recycled Materials in Tourism: BermudAir is partnering with Solar Sands to use 500 custom recycled-glass pieces onboard, building on Anguilla-linked waste-glass upcycling that aims to keep coastal waste out of the ocean.
