520 0    |a Climate Change Adaptation
520 3    |a This document provides an evaluation of the state of world fisheries and aquaculture with particular attention to the risks the industry faces from climate change. It underlines the need for fishery-dependent states to enhance their capacity to adapt to climate change (115). In 2008, the fishery and aquaculture industry provided the world with 142 million tons of fish, with 115 million specifically designated for human consumption. Fish provides over 1.5 billion people around the world with nearly 20% of their average per capita intake of animal protein, and 3 billion with at least 15%. The sector is critical to millions around the globe who depend on it for food and their livelihoods. Unfortunately, the industry is endangered by various factors, with climate change being amongst the most threatening. Some of the major ecological and physical impacts of climate change include the heterogeneous warming of oceans, declining density of surface waters, and losses in the nutrient capacities of surface waters. Climate change also shifts the composition and quantity of fish populations in the seas, leaving fishery-dependent economies particularly vulnerable. The study urges those economies to enhance the adaptive capacities of individuals and public institutions (116). The document also examines the potential impacts of climate change for aquaculture, which accounts for almost half of fish consumed by humans. Since global aquaculture takes place mostly (65 percent) in tropical and subtropical regions, climate change poses a significant risk for the industry. Physical destruction of aquaculture facilities, loss of stock, and spread of disease are considered the major climate-related risks facing regions dependent on aquaculture. In this regard, the study suggests that “moving aquaculture practices further upstream or shifting to more salinity-tolerant strains of cultured species” can be critical components of the industry’s adaptation (120). Unfortunately, these measures could be costly. Other threats to aquatic environments in general include industrialization, urbanization, deforestation, mining, agriculture, and hydropower generation. To ensure that development does not threaten the survival of an industry responsible for much of the world’s food generation and millions of livelihoods, an ecosystem services approach to development is suggested. This means moving away from sector-specific policymaking towards a holistic approach that takes into account the critical role of biodiversity in sustainable development. This also means involving those who directly depend on this biodiversity for their livelihoods in development decision-making processes.
