Our solution, fulton, active is doing about that find out in most, salting to the dozens of the ideas of fish in such a fresh catch. And a good bargain is a daily drawer for many in gold cut up at the bottom of the so much it was a bringing here and been gold grew up eating fish and rice only not a big gully. Simply cant imagine life without fish. Will think about me, you could see that weve been goalies, eat fish, or some kind of sea food, can at least one me almost every day. And in fact, the most hockey markets like these sell tons of fish. Every d. Scott, in nearby regions by officials likes the numbers of us he has been making the living from the its some of these are the for 35 years now. But his daily gach is no longer, but it used to be a good we was all before the 2 thousands we would find a lot to fish in these waters. Im sure people how we get around half of what we used to argue. Lot small kinds of fish and especially varieties of prone were found in abundance of the but it was even named after these prompts a quantity. It was a time when you would cost your net and catch as much as a 100. 00 kilos official every day one for school, for the 10. 00 difference. That runs to some of the most densely inhabited areas in the wood road and bridge infrastructure and increased agricultural activity are all partly to blame for choking that of a. According to geographer, the budget that the who studies the effective human action under the ecosystems, the chum a d, as in a dias, date for somebody bought, it was the things thing in the office to media and when there is no fish order flew that he body term would be only saw devising the dollars to medias and it has to be coming. All are starting to legit call the duct. Are you dialing lee . Im sorry. You dont even live nice. It is one channel. So i mean from the sea, and we do only having the satellite north and not the fish or the fixtures. Now mostly get the fish by beating them invisible. It isnt the knowledge that store fresh rainwater during the month. So meanwhile, the remaining flow in the time of the is under threat from growing riverbank settlements. Animal and human beast often ends up directly in the untreated sewage, as well as the primary causes for the growth of an invasion of aquatic plant, the water highest. And it reproduces fast and stops fish of oxygen into water mazda the we have got to the point that fishing is dying out. As we is making the living, people have migrated to put drugs on them by not doing our job to make ends meet, didnt call the 5. I think our school however, some likes about enough. Notice what the sting on and doing the best to divide the time and date of those who ologist is an activist in his spare times and regularly leads low goods on water hyacinth cleanup drugs. Some 8000 members of the Fishing Community have joined forces to clean clothes, kilometers of the liquid cleanings ivan for. Were cleaning dr. Mint, theres a little was able to see the sun for the 1st time in ages. No governor to boat can move again. I get the motion of the just speaking about that with them because i want this is an amazing and unique experience for me when we go on to the official people can now fish again and were seeing fish growth of that for the sites. See why the middle bottles going to go into play a Single Button to satisfy the new that to make this a long term success. She needed to find the sustainable be to handle the vegetation. They were removing from that of a so the set up a thief, let me compost fits to process the highest and waste mixing in easily available banana leaves and co done. Each bit can produce up to 40 keyboards of organic fertilizer every month. It is sold to families in the region who use it instead of chemical fertilizers. The well after we cleaned the river, i helped make a lot of our me complex. Yeah. That, or do me a lot of money see months ago and i wasnt alone. I know 80 other families have profited to anybody because southerners loved further develop. This childhood has proven infectious people from dozens of nearby villages have started their own teen up trays. Spots of the time at the beginning to breathe again and low goes have even reintroduced deficiencies that used to swim in these waters before. But the active us knows this is only the beginning. Well, so if i start from the amount of that of a will send, my 1st recommendation would be dredging, which one i will then beginning up of what the highest chain cost when the hotel would remove all encroachments for for to the stop all pollutants from temple homes and markets, and lastly, i have a Long Term Plan for the river survival to go over the plan. It will think things on the plan. If i need to go to Southern Service with, he knows that the road will fully divide. Comedy is long, but already dozens of communities are reaping the benefit thats come with conserving the source of life and livelihoods in the region. Have you ever heard of them keystone species visa species that have a disproportionately large impact on the environment where they live off and also helping for the entire system together . Like i said, we often find in fantasies as strong are also known as the engineers of the ecosystem. Because they not only significantly modify but also for the if you have it as part of the species by forming z. And believe it or not, they also help minimize the facts of climate. Lets find out how this oyster and these muscles along with scallops and clamps are by valves. Ocean creatures with 2 attached shells. Fossil records, place their age over 500000000 years old. Before the dinosaurs and they are found everywhere from the arctic to the antarctic. To the equator, they start out tiny, floating through the water. The oysters and muscles attach themselves to an underWater Surface to gravel walk. Clams buried themselves in sand. They come in all different shapes and sizes too. They used to be so plentiful that they were given out is free bar snacks. But over fishing cost populations to decrease by 5 percent of shelbys race was his main. Well, heidi all the way did her ph. D. On the history of oysters and muscles, weve had this extreme loss of a highly productive habitat. So many places in the world and people didnt even know that it had happened. The more we learned about how valuable they are to ecosystems, the more devastating this loss because thats because they do some incredible stuff and all the hanging out in the water wherever they grow. Theyre busy cleaning because the majority of buyouts or filter theaters, they filter water and sketch particles ends at the borders. So feed on those particles, surrogate caps of research, time muscles or controlling ecosystem of the great lakes in the united states. You can imagine a muscle sitting at the bottom of the lake, maybe in 200 with me, those depths. You imagine that what i call them 200 is meet us above the muscle. Thats the single muscle can cycle that column of water in a couple of hours. They use whatever particles they need to grow and excrete the rest in a form that bacteria on the bottom can break down. As you can see on the left, the filter chemicals necessary for plants and animal growth, phosphorus and nitrogen of these chemicals are present an agricultural run of some fertilizers and can cause toxic algo blooms that high levels. Items also filter more than just chemicals. Pilot projects are using them to clean lakes and oceans of micro classics. Tiny plastic particles, hard to see and collect the bivalves, absorb the small ones, and larger particles are excluded in feces which can then be taken out of the water. So we can use these animals to clean up polluted water, but in a closed environment, they can alter the whole ego system. Thats what the researchers discovered in the great lakes. The muscles are native to this area and have cleared the water of nutrients to well. It was quite a realization they figured out the muscles that live from the bottom of the lake have this much effect on the biology of the entirely in open ocean. Its a different story here. Muscles and oysters can form re able to support whole eco systems. Oysters are particularly good at this overtime. Researchers grow bigger and bigger and they are very complex. Katie motion right. So the 1000000000 oyster project which aims to restore 1000000000 oysters to new york harbor by 2035. As the oyster reese grow ocean plants attached to them, which attracts small fish and other animals to become a nursery and a feeding ground for all different kinds of organize. And so hundreds of other species fish, crafts, little tiny vented organisms will make their home and always survey these reese, also support of the larger animals. A study of new zealand muscle. Reeves found over 10 times as many phishing of them and see horses have returned to the oyster. Its in new york harbor. Their benefits also extend beyond the structures themselves. Lowest rates of doing is actually protecting the integrity of the world a h. I system. When a powerful wave comes in from the ocean and hits an oyster read, some of the energy is broken off and lost. Meaning the ways that passed that re arent as damaging near the shore. This protect fragile coastal eco systems like c grasses, which function of the nurseries for ocean animals. And as carbon sinks, less wave energy also means less coastal erosion. And these ecosystem benefits can also come from farms if theyre sustainably managed. The muscles inside in the system is very beneficial. Most of the day works muscle farmers in south africa to make sure their operations are sustainable as possible. Sustainable fishing practices, for example, trying to ensure that the minimize co interrogations and attendance protected species, muscles are hung from ropes suspended in the water. The animals could become trapped and with the ropes properly anchored. Its extremely red. This happens the also trying to ensure that the muscle fox themselves cannot have an impact on the basic heavy tests that people paint over in a closed environment like this day, excuse me, from the muscles could cover the ocean floor. So platforms are rotated to make sure they dont overwhelm ecosystems 5, all farms require no feet and no antibiotics as they get everything they need from the water rope. Chrome muscles have a Carbon Footprint of 0. 25 kilograms per cubic. For comparison, beef is around a 100 kilograms per kilo. Out of the water, 5 amps go through a process called desperation. Theyre placing clean water to remove pollutants, dangers to human health. Micro plastics are harder to remember, but even if you dont each of fish, you could be consuming one credit card at micro plastic per week. And unlike other methods of food production, waste products from muscles and oysters can be used in a circular way from us. But who we can use now that we can use it says types of a town extremely uses the lift the shells. It should be mico kenny composed of them as building material. The shells also sequester carbon. Fiber was pulled from the water and use it to grow their shops. Crushed up the shelves can be added to concrete instead of limestone. But the best use for the shelves is the simplest. Growing more by valves old shows are often we used for farming, but can also go to Restoration Projects where the shellfish are left in the water instead of eating. These projects are springing up around the world from australia to new york city. This is where the oyster really shines every year, and were collecting oyster shell from new york carver restaurants. So weve collected almost 2000000 pounds or shell already. The shows are cleaned and placed in cages. Resource or cages are put into shipping containers that weve converted into a way to set oyster larva onto shell. Add water from the harbor, then some larvae, and after a week there are babies. Oysters. The cages are then moved into the harbor. As the oyster reef grows, it creates an ecosystem. Well also benefit in people on shore. We can expect a ton of fish that had a voice to read, to be added to the brain environment 3 or restoration prices. So one more bibles generally mean cleaner waters. The positive impact of muscles and oysters can be doubled through circular uses for their shops. And of all of them, or easters of the super heroes filtering sheltering, protecting and restoring. Thats why we should be doing everything we can to put more of them in our waters of the value of money and especially is the 2nd one to many fish on the forecast. Once the reading population is depleting waste products. So then it can be a process known as the global efficient. These fishing specials may also the developers fish or to their life cycles and for dr. Mcgee and did use the availability of fix stops. But 111 from the poles to somebody, not who has taken it upon herself to spread. A van is about this dangerous practice to ensure a scene of the future for the fish and for the occupation of fishing children, the coastal communities of 10, a fishing nets done up dozens of varieties of edible sea food. But only a small proportion of these find bios Marine Conservation is the vehicle that says this with tons of fish every day. Given that its india and its a very bio diverse country. Theyre catching a lot of diverse fish. But in open markets, which are the primary target market, so they, they can sell it for a value. The, the people are only eating a very few species. People out eating maybe 6. 00 to 15. 00 me shes at the most in metros even if theyre close to the cities and all that. And what the fisherman not catching is close to a 100 different a bit of a. So we are not talking about the endangered species in our talking about dogs in start those, all those things, only the bit of fish or what a 100, theyre catching people that only eating 6 to 50. So what happens to this . The rest is lester perish, dizzy, our cars are regularly signs by use of the dead or dying fish showed on the beach. If theyre still alive like this, the sneak, she helps them back into the sea. But for the most part on so the dead fish is dumped back into the ocean at the time of depleting fish stocks and the area. This is a waste. Fishes can ill afford resume. Now there are 30 minutes. A lot of people dont even know the names of most efficiencies. For example, they would never even know what the mean is. Customers simply do not by substrate, but if we try to sell them officially, they havent cut off and i thought they say that theyve never eaten that fish and theyre always hesitant to dry longer. Then goes along, setting these beaches complain that customers often ask for fish that is out of season or hot to come by and local. Want us i uh let me go for the grab the phones. Uh, but uh this fish then, uh, probably the mattress for the freight. Yeah, i dont they experiment with fish now. Not a good the bigger of a fish, so annoyed sentiment to this what weve been bank or the past. Yes. As much as the push market milan comes across the in season for steam, who take him and what vehicle a fish walk and visibly its closer to when we can see that you should have, we might have in partners want everyone to know. We are going to buy fish ones, the fish, what weve done like i def, i are unique to the species and official freshman id. So usually voice, im will, for the most common my feelings are in, but im trying to of, by the types of to should i do this experiment if you spell that one, just one that really does you all could not unto the searches, look closely with local fishes to keep track of cut and beating cycles and the availability of certain species. And so this is the most of that we provide to people on ive fish walks. So they can just look at this and identify which of the fish in season and when we give them the test to go all the night in to pay a sustainable fish. They should ensure that not only does it meet the criteria of being production, being caught from sustainable efficient and it should also be in caesar. The be a could not, is confident that we created awareness and a more adventure to spell it. Consumers will develop a more diverse appetite, the bad use, the bounty of 10, ne shows and or what says what gets measured gets managed a 70 to roy. Man in spain has abided by this model for us. He uses his special devices to measure the temperature and the sized contents of the mediterranean sea, collecting the data that is used by fishermen to strategize. Thats pushing expeditions and by scientists for their research. Its just after dawn. But jose pasquals is a man on a mission. Hes heading out to see the 73 year old, collects weather data on land and in the water. I was looking at about eunice. The moment i use these special through monitors that you can lower into the c k. Uh, but kinda in the process, you have to around 5 minutes of one glass. They flip over and display the temperature in the deep by now get on the amount of time to elect them. But i do like a in this, that proof in the past fall knows all about the sea and how to measure it for over half a century. The topography for and son of a fisher has pursued his hobby of the coast of less 13 in North Eastern spring, weather permitting. He goes to see twice a week to document water temperatures in the mediterranean. Is maybe that. Me see, its my life. Thats my place. Its almost like a drug, a miracle here, the average. And so i was little, its thrill heat. I mean, that is mainly because data like this didnt exist when i was 15 or 20 years old, then no, no idea that that was based on having reached his 1st measuring point posts up lower than one of his devices. It shows that at a depth of 30 meters, the water temperature is close to 16 degrees celsius. Pascal says the sea surface has warmed by full degrees since he began taking measurements is pretty cool, but then put a couple of the must continue more. Its worrying scale because rising temperatures caused the water to expand and without leaving the sea level to rise, he loves and take those key. I almost know that we can see this on the beach and i to spend the money here. The half a meter narrower ingle, i verify that the beach here has trunk by 15 meters since 1993. Did say that those was made out to go along with the temperature. Pascal measures the water, salt content which has all the one on the front of they are lovely medical my m k. I the one of the pieces and put it providing vital info that fisherman, like a sophomore, you have come to rely on hospital field and we had that lifestyle work as closely connected to this data. And one thing if we knew a bit more about at all like he does, wed be better fishers for sure why they walk in city. I want them to hold as difficult as i used piteous piano support on this deal. There are species of fish that can cope with the rising temperatures by myself, sort of the others that are used to warmer water, you know, now come up nor that from more southern areas like a style. And of course, the morales posts up past qual, meticulously notes, the coordinates and measurements. Then at the local tourist info office, he transfers the data to a website used by scientists worldwide. These dealers have you to get them access to all my data in an american trade magazine and compare them to their own findings that they see in the hour. They said now they know their satelli
