In the U.S. alone, an estimated one million people depend on commercial fishing, aquaculture, and the seafood supply chain for their livelihoods, and billions worldwide rely on food from the ocean. But in a rapidly changing world, how can we sustain marine life and the people that depend on it? Join us to hear from scientists, commercial fishermen, and more about the challenges facing ocean fisheries and how their work is helping turn the tide.

Panelists:

  • Matt Charette, Director, WHOI Sea Grant
  • Laura McDonnell, marine ecologist, WHOI
  • Tracy Sylvester, commercial fisherman

Véronique LaCapra, host, WHOI
