Mama always said, “Don’t worry, darling, there are plenty of fish in the sea.” But what mama didn’t take into account was the impact of global warming on the Earth’s oceans. While many varieties of fish populations are relocating to cooler temperatures, other species are dwindling due to the stress of the warmer waters.
Climate change is threatening the economic stability of countries and regions that rely on fishing for not only their food supply but for the financial security of their families and communities. Environmental research shows that ocean temperatures are rising at a much faster pace than previously predicted, and actionable solutions are needed to rectify the problem.
