niceties and keeping them on the unfortunate. mom. well established story. because i'm bored. most. easily starts january 27th on d w. more. our love for the fish on our plate and other seafood is causing great harm and an imbalance to the marine ecosystem worldwide how can we preserve our oceans and even our rivers so that we can continue to remain a living species that's what we want to be a welcome this is eco india and. the metropolis of mumbai it was originally the

need to of land of fishermen as the populations fight the demand for fish spikes to the high protein and low fact quality made them the go to food for the health conscious this puts immense pressure on the fisherman to fish during the breeding season or in dangerous waters or even over a particular species to meet the rising demand a unique calendar is helping consumers understand this phenomenon so that the fish and the fisherman are better protected. ok daybreak is still a couple of hours away but business is in full swing at some docks the biggest and oldest which landing site in coastal mumbai. it is girls fisherman have landed their fresh catch hold selfish auctions are underway and fishmongers just through the crowd gathering full of browns and range over the

sea from. long before mumbai became the burgeoning metropolis it is today its original inhabitants the colli fishing community lived very different. then my going to get going for there wasn't fishing for the survivors what they were finished the wrongs of. and when the modernization stuff. bronzer business started when the dollars came in 19 sixty's and seventy's it was all mostly for the exports you know and that is why we started catching a lot for others you know. change. is a 7th generation fisherman who operates 3 fishing boats at the docks he has learned about the change in fish catch here only history lessons and witnessing some of it

for himself since he began coming out here as chinese. my grandfather used to always tell me that how he was with the fish you know. not so strong as in like just a one shoulder or something of that and then slowly and slowly today started. to collect 2 to 3 days 90 days was 5 to 6 days in 20072010 fishing days were 10 to 20 days now that rowling is almost like 15 to 20 days. though india accounts to 6.3 percent of global fish production fishing for a living could soon become economically and viable for another fisherman in this community. you know works with a group of marine biologists on bringing more of in this to the screen. there is a massive information gap between. the information gap in terms of what fish to eat in what season in order to minimize their impact on the seafood people

are more than willing to do some subtle changes in their seafood eating practices for a living is this information is not available to them. in any fashion. you know your fish is the 1st of it's going seafood sustainability guide in india it is a calendar that details the species that can be eaten and which should be awarded in certain seasons. for each fish collected what they would need to be publicly available and released or know which of that month. the fish north is known to breed the months very recent. particular fish should be awarded. to that the month where that fish believes all the fish which gets caught along with that fish. just zimbabwe resident who found out about the gallon a year ago and now strictly follows one cooking for her to. dig for you even though

i really like i've stopped eating them for me to 3 months of the year because that's the time that they breed situation however this fish is something we can eat now. have also begun to follow the routine like the seafood restaurant in mumbai if we have different kinds of dishes on the menu then we would rather use a different fish for every preparation that is on the menu as opposed to use one fish on the end united must be on the entire menu and that cans and that kind of makes it cool for us makes it slightly challenging to come up with dishes in the sense and the challenge is something that we enjoy. the restaurant staff see there has been a remarkable change in their consumer choices to. the food. we were happy to take on not knowing what was. right and that was the idea of seafood

for us and it was exotic but today we want to know where did this come from what is it that i'm eating was a line cord is a farm is it why leg when was this card is this fish fresh. the team behind the calendar hopes the behavioral change can someday result in a shift in seafood demand and supply. legan mangos in windows install billions on the simulator they have to understand you can order it. so i think this has to come from a consumer and when it comes from going to automatically fisherman i want the consumer to nor the fisherman as the nor the fish when they know the fish they even know the fisherman i think it can work like that. but the dogs comes to him with the preparation for the next week in the hope that the gap between the fishing community and finally closes for. a calendar

like this which appeals to the better sense of the can see what must have given you an idea of how big the problem is fishing is a huge industry worldwide but remember these natural resources in our oceans are not endless let's take a closer look at the impact overfishing has on our planet. fishing is big business the un's food and agriculture organization estimates the value of trade in fish and fishery products for 2019 at 145000000000 euros to catch a fish and seafood has been growing for decades between 195-1990 the global catch sawed from under $20000000.00 tonnes a year to about 80 the rate of growth then slowed and the catch is now around 19000000 tonnes a year. small scale fishing is responsible for close to half

the volume the united nations is keen to support sustainable fishing practices and is back to a number of projects. one key factor is using nets with the right size mash if it's too tight baby fish are trapped and often perish that contributes to the depletion of stocks industrial bottom trolling with dragnets is also very destructive of the sea floor and deep. see regions. and of course all kinds of other species get trapped and often die this is called bycatch it shouldn't be caught in the 1st place. it's estimated that close to $30000000.00 tons of fish a year now end up as bycatch. it's a terrible waste and the death of juvenile creatures means a stocks of these other species are depleted as well. a huge problem is illegal fishing that is catching more fish than allowed under

quota regimes often in marine protected areas. the volume is estimated to have been about 30000000 tonnes in 2019 that means a 3rd of the global catch was fished illegally. for stocks to regenerate illegal fishing has to be stopped as does fishing at spawning grounds during the spawning period marine protected areas need to be expanded and patrolled to enforce compliance with fishing restrictions these areas currently covered just 5 percent of the ocean's. marine and course the eco systems are very sensitive and need to be allowed to replicate and then natural traditional oyster farmers in a small village in the west coast of india who used to harvest oysters in a disorganized manner have learned and adopted a sustainable practice of oyster farming.

the women of the religious rather tired on india's west coast are busy stringing together oyster shells. they used to doyle for long hours looking for wild oysters but often returned with a negligible catch. all the hard work did little to increase their. incomes. so what a lucky lady luck that when i me earlier today used to go to the shore and collect naturally formed oysters in the creek be used to earn very little money and oysters could only be collected for about 8 days a month our hands and legs were always frozen by our backs used to hurt the sun was unrelenting to come of the edge of what a whole lot idol. rising

temperatures and the increasingly late rainy season have seen the men's catches of fish constantly dwindle. so the women look for ways to maintain their family's livelihoods in 2013 they were approached by the united nations development program with a plan that would simplify their lives by enabling them to farm oysters in the creek near their homes. they were offered training and funding and asked to form a self-help group terra cotta the cells that are out there but. eventually they set up the 1st of the women's self-help group and after they were shown how to do it this started oyster farming the ropes are threaded with empty oyster shells oysters feed on plankton and waste and help keep the water clean

oyster farming in course through what was is cheap and environmentally friendly. oyster loudly called spats attach themselves to the empty shelves within 12 to 14 months they grow into oysters big enough to sell and eat in better thought the crops are bountiful. the initial investment of about $75.00 euros to buy bamboos and groups has proved to be very worthwhile a similar project. have sprung up in other religious along the coast. much about it with a much weaker legend not to deploy a lot of my used to go to the fish market to sell my catch my friends would tell me customer reviews saw your photo in the newspaper and heard about the success of your project tell us more and i would say you can do it too you need to form a self-help group to get the project going mommy much him at the fish market i hope set up to help groups i thought they should benefit from this just like the. pro

did it it doesn't monitor personnel does it. but. the women of among the 1st oyster farmers in the state of mind. they only own a few rupees per oyster the money adds up at the end of the year they share the profits among themselves. not pollution of the oceans and rivers is one of the biggest problems of the 21st century massive quantities of plastic waste ends up in our seas the ocean cleanup project which is using the natural forces of the ocean to passively catch and concentrate plastic in the create with the fish garbage bag which has garnered huge attention worldwide the latest project focuses on cleaning up dirty rivers. the interceptor on wheels recently is a large catamaran which collects plastic waste from fevers from the surface along

the barrier over a conveyor belt and into dumpsters with a simple principle the organization wants to clean house and reverse the contribute to it people said of the ocean's plastic before 2025. lucky more and more people are coming forward with their unique solutions to tackle water pollution we found yet another interesting approach write demands to them on. all kinds of debra's swimming in this canal in amsterdam ends up in this catchment cage . a crew from the water company rotter net comes by regularly to empty it every week about a 1000 kilograms of stuff accumulates half of it plastic this is how it works there is pumped into a tube lay diagonally across the bed of the canal and escapes through holes in the tube the bubbles bring the waste to the surface the waste is then directed with the

help of the current into the receptacle near the bank keeping it out of the north sea. boats and fish can pass through the bubble barrier the extra oxygen is also good for the water. the great bubble barrier was devised by an amsterdam startup of the same name yeah right at this point they doubled their years responsible for the maintenance of the whole it's still ation but that it is going to start doing research so they will start research on how much less tickets are being collected it will also do research on how easy it is to be emptied the water company has crews and a fleet of boats that go around and pull trash out of the city's waterways last year that included more than 40000 kilograms of plastic but hope is that bubble barriers will make the job easier and more effective. that's what this test installation in operation since november should determine. the inventor

spent years developing the bubble barrier. there were various challenges such as how to position the tube and resulting screen of bubbles so as to direct trash to a collecting point and how to make best use of currents. the diagonal path is key. 4 people set up the company they now have a staff of 10. there's been a lot of resonance the technology is not particularly complex or expensive and it should prove to be very scalable phillip horn is one of the inventors of the system and he's continuing to develop it he's currently working on improving the catchment part of the process. with capture and so some we still want to improve a couple of things to be. maybe doing it more dramatically or going for even

smaller size of classic because we know that we can catch down to one millimeter in size of classics micro plastics are a serious problem worldwide and jeopardize the food chain none the less offshore it is in the european union for example and yet obliged to clean the waterways of plastic despite the health risks we do see now with my capacity because that's a more direct threat to our health that something when we start to wake up if it's already already hurting the environment is usually not urgent enough. but there's still not really the budget around to to get plastic out of the water so that 70 a challenge for us as as. plastic trash is a global plague that bubble barriers could help combat the team see a lot of potential for expansion. move towards europe within this years of 2020 but also move towards asia and you haven't seen it in partnership with parties in

asia they hope to set up the 1st the bubble barrier in asia by 2023. what do you feel is becoming a big problem with every passing day fishermen in southeastern speed was shocked to see thousands of dead fish on their shores while they battle about the causes of this phenomenon with badminton activists and the provincial government it is their livelihood which is the. this league is their life for money when martinez and ruben back fishing is not just a job it's a labor of love they ply their trade in the mama nor the smallest sea in the south of spain it's the largest salt water lagoon in europe but i mean if. there's a lot to me it's more than a good one but some other. those waters feed us and provide our daily bread. but the lagoon is in crisis thousands of dead fish washed up on shore recently and

it wasn't the 1st must die off. and pollution has been a problem here for a long time. it comes from surrounding towns and from farming and the doll ends up in mamma nor this pollution promotes bacterial growth which is harmful to the seabed and that results and low levels of oxygen and the water at the end of . the fishermen of mana no have hung up their nets and now they want to protect the remaining fish population and sales have dropped in any case due to fears of contamination the search for the cause of the mass die off is still under way. like the fisherman environmental activists believe that pollution is to blame page or garcia and want to dare to say that over use of fertilizers in the region is causing contaminated water to wash into the lagoon and. intensive farming is

contaminating the soil and groundwater with nitrates from fertilizers. a lot of that ground and surface water flows into the lagoon. the agricultural industry is mainly to blame for this pollution but they're doing nothing to fix it and i think that they're going to. have. studies also indicate that industrial farming in the region may be to blame broccoli lettuce and artichokes are grown here some fields have been irrigated illegally. but some farmers such as minnow martinez deny these claims he says that more and more farmers are switching to modern irrigation systems that allow them to reduce the use of fertilizers he says climate and weather conditions are to blame are going to go and other mental old demands are new have to remember that over the last few years we've seen a lot of extremely heavy rainfall. so. for example heavy

rains caused a great deal of water to wash into the lagoon. there we are a modern man on. the fishermen agree that climate change and flooding is making everything worse that's why farmers have to cut down on fertilizer use it's also a political issue the state needs to impose stricter rules they say which so far it's failed to do. government has no regard for what they've done nothing to protect us here we've been telling them for years that conditions and mamma nor are terrible. local administrators say it's up to federal lawmakers in madrid to introduce tougher regulations. but after years of political instability the central government has left southwestern spain to deal with the issue on its own. and it's not just the

reputation of the lagoon or of this region that's at stake here what's at stake is the invite. mental reputation of all of spain we have to learn from this that it's time we found a solution. by the time a solution arrives it could be too late for man un mightiness and other local fisherman some are already planning to sell their boat it might be years before fish stocks return to normal if ever. i don't know what to do. fishing is my life. i've been doing it for 13 or 14 years. my family have fished these waters for 4 or 5 generations that's all i know. some local fishermen have started heading out again even though there's little demand for fish from these waters they feel they have no choice.

looking at the past if you laws are implemented and enforced better this is often lead to an improvement in environmental conditions more than 7000 miles away the city of mumbai to struggle with the implementation often among other things leading to a pollutant course like of course life that has a rich biodiversity of marine creatures and environmental activist in the city is trying to raise awareness among its residents in order to preserve and protect this valuable ecosystem before it's too late. for the party has photographed more than 250 marine species in recent years. including the q. . and

a blue button jellyfish. he didn't discover them somewhere in the wild but off the coast of mumbai. the former sports teacher now helps conserve the rich marine life the tribes along the city's schools line and also conducts sure walks during the tide. motive is lake popular a thing i don't know but ok so more people walk on the beach and if they see and if they find such or die with marine life i don't move very very definitely not ok and then they'll start respecting or she thinks so but conservation will happen at all medically. the beaches of mumbai some of the most polluted waters in the world but the 167 kilometers of coastline us to live treasure troves marine life weeping to be explored. with photographs but the pitot is drawing attention to waste disposal and environmental degradation.

we are planning to document these things then definitely young scientists. approach explored be kind of. definitely come forward and do some more studies i don't this area. is work and preserve mumbai's beaches from further loss of biodiversity. simple actions like what fish we choose to eat and how we choose to dispose off takeout container has a life changing impact on marine animals and plants let's call it the responsibility of being a human being i would leave you with that thought we'll be back next week with yet another episode until then.
