I pescatori sfruttano gli stock ittici, che in genere hanno una capacità di riproduzione elevata, ma non illimitata. Se la pesca non viene controllata, si rischia l'esaurimento degli stock o la sostenibilità economica di questa attività. È nell’interesse di tutti disporre di un sistema di gestione della pesca al fine di
Lo scopo principale della gestione della pesca nell’ambito della politica comune della pesca (PCP) è garantire, ove possibile, livelli di catture elevati a lungo termine per tutti gli stock entro il 2015, ed al più tardi entro il 2020 (principio del rendimento massimo sostenibile). Un altro obiettivo di importanza crescente è ridurre al minimo o evitare le catture indesiderate e le pratiche dannose attraverso la graduale introduzione dell'obbligo di sbarco. La riforma della PCP ha introdotto nuove norme e una nuova struttura di gestione che pone l'accento sulla regionalizzazione e su una maggiore consultazione dei portatori d'interessi.
La gestione della pesca può assumere la forma di controllo dell’input o dell'output o una combinazione di entrambi. Il controllo dell'input comprende:
Il controllo dell'output consiste principalmente nel limitare la quantità di pesce catturato in un determinato settore, in particolare attraverso il sistema dei totali ammissibili di cattura (vedi TAC e contingenti).
La politica comune della pesca ricorre sempre di più a piani pluriennali, che spesso prevedono una combinazione di diversi strumenti di gestione.
La gestione della pesca si basa su dati, pareri scientifici e misure di controllo per garantire che le norme siano applicate in maniera equa e rispettate da tutti i pescatori.
Fisheries conservation measures for the protection of the marine environmentWe all depend on healthy ecosystems: for food, energy, raw materials, air and water. That is why the EU has adopted laws to protect our environment and safeguard biodiversity – whether on land and at sea.This includes environmental legislation like the Birds and Habitats Directives or the Marine Strategy Framework Directive (or Marine Directive), which aims to create a framework for the sustainable use of our marine waters.In order to meet their environmental obligations under the three directives, EU countries need to take action on various fronts. This includes addressing different human activities affecting the seas, for instance fisheries.Since fisheries policy is an exclusive competence of the European Union, it is up to the EU to take any fisheries-related measures.However, the EU's Common Fisheries Policy (CFP) also gives member states the chance to play an active role in designing fisheries conservation measures (so-called regionalisation). Affected countries may submit joint recommendations as regards the fisheries conservation measures deemed necessary to achieve those environmental objectives. The Commission can then adopt legislation on the basis of those recommendations, effectively turning them into binding EU law.Joint recommendations received so far:

The blue biotechnology sector is a fascinating niche in the European blue economy. It uses living marine organisms – algae, bacteria, fungi, shellfish – to develop new, sustainable applications for a variety of sectors, ranging from pharmaceuticals and textiles to chemicals, packaging, fuel and more.
When you think about marine pollution, probably you imagine floating debris such as plastic bottles, straws and bags, or discarded fishing nets trapping marine animals. Maybe you picture an oil spill. But would you think of mercury?
The European Commission has published a new action plan to accelerate the development of the organic sector. The plan will boost the production and consumption of organic products, in order to reach 25% of agricultural land under organic farming by 2030, as well as a significant increase in organic aquaculture, as set in the EU’s Farm to Fork and Biodiversity Strategies.
