Sustainable Aquaculture Practices
Sustainable aquaculture plays a vital role in ensuring a healthy future for the ocean and meeting the protein needs of a growing global population. By producing fish and shellfish responsibly, it helps reduce pressure on wild fish stocks while providing high-quality seafood for human consumption.
These practices also support the protection and restoration of coastal ecosystems, including mangroves and wetlands, which serve as crucial habitats for many marine species. Additionally, sustainable aquaculture generates employment opportunities and stimulates economic growth in coastal communities, improving livelihoods and reducing poverty.
By promoting sustainable aquaculture practices, we can achieve a healthier ocean, protect marine biodiversity, and contribute to a more sustainable and resilient planet.
