It all began from a simple question: why would fishers overexploit the very resource that their livelihood depends on? Today, fisheries management is at a complex crossroads: seafood supply is being impacted by climate change and ocean pollution, while many sustainable solutions such as marine protected areas could impact the economic opportunities offered by commercial and subsistence fishing. Aquaculture is one of the fastest growing industries in the US and around the world and its operation is getting more and more sustainable \u2013 can it be a solution to overfishing of wild fish stocks? Researchers in ENRE are studying different management strategies in the Ocean State and around the world to understand the best solutions that balance the economic benefits for local stakeholders and ensure the ongoing health of marine ecosystems.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
