1. Spillover Effect in Marine Protected Areas
2. Plan for China

  • Poverty reduction combined with

3. Natural selection: Aquaculture and bioengineered fish

  • Engineer fish that consume fish more efficiently, can't defend themselves
  • Don't use engineer fish

3a. How will engineered fish who can't defend themselves work?

4. Flag hopping?

  • Threat to international fishing and not domestic

5. International water regulations? How does that effect

6. What is the earth's carrying capacity for humans? What's the earth's response to that?

  • Carrying capacity is correlated to consumption

7. How have the powerful countries in the world reacted to UN treaties that restrict economic growth (biological weapons and Kyoto protocols)?

  • Education is part of the plan--encourage people to follow our plan because it's the best thing for everyone

8. How do you regulate man-powered fishing (people who aren't using advanced technology)?

  • Lower licensing fees for those who use less efficient fishing (hand fishing, man-powered boats, etc.)
  • Don't subsidize the creation of more sophisticated fishing technology

8a. Do you regulate hand-line fishing?

  • No, because it isn't harming the ecosystem

9. How would you implement fish consumption?

  • Fair trade fish (sustainably acquired fish)
  • Ad campaigns: how you can get benefits from fish elsewhere

10. Pollution and disease in aquaculture?

  • Disease can be prevented by constant monitoring
  • Keep fresh water moving through cage system

11. Worldwide education about fish conservation?

12. How do

  • Present this as an international collection of scholars

13. Why should I care about fish if I don't eat fish?

  • Fish are used to make products
  • The ocean is itself a huge resource
  • Ecosystem can crash
  • Fisheries are integral part of the economy

14. How does warming water effect fish biology?

  • Peru and Chile: Industry suffers from el Nino
  • Temp. changes chemical composition of water

14a. What fish species suffer the most and how do they suffer?

  • Salmon need a lot of oxygen in the water which is effected by temp

15. How does the change from fresh water to salt water effect fish?

  • Salinity: more predators, spawning is effected

16. Africa: Case studies/plans

  • Kenya: Marine protected areas, improves biodiversity
  • Tanzania: collaborative scheme, improves fishery stocks

17. Where does multitrophic aquaculture come into plan?

  • predator vs. prey fish
  • No labels
