A Hard Rain’s Gonna Fall
The IPCC’s sixth assessment report says small-scale fishers are among the people on the planet most vulnerable to the effects of climate change. An estimated 90 per cent of all people directly dependent on marine and inland capture fisheries work in the small-scale fisheries sub-sector. They are largely rooted in local communities, catching fish using traditional knowledge, and labour- and skill-intensive methods. Their lives—along coastal and riparian areas—and their livelihoods, closely linked to the health of ecosystems and biodiversity, make them uniquely vulnerable to the impacts of climate change.
