Mostly Marine Pollution comes from land-based sources. When pesticides are incorporated into marine life, they quickly become absorbed into marine food webs. This can be harmful to humans as well as the entire food chain.

Aquaculture continues to significantly expand its production, making it the
fastest-growing food production sector globally.
However, the sustainability of the sector is at stake due to the predicted effects of climate change that are not only a future but also a present reality.
In this Lecture, we review the potential effects of climate change on aquaculture production and its implications on the sector ’ s sustainability.
Various elements of a changing climate, such as rising temperatures, sea-level
rise, diseases and harmful algal blooms, changes in rainfall patterns, the uncertainty of external inputs supplies, changes in sea surface salinity, and
severe climatic events have been discussed. Furthermore, several adaptation options have been presented as well as some gaps in existing knowledge that
require further investigations.
Climate change ,adaptation and mitigation in fisheriesSWAGATIKA SAHOO
Climate change impacts on aquatic and marine ecosystems and associated livelihoods are growing, and the purpose of this circular is to provide a brief overview of potential impacts and details of ongoing and completed adaptation activities. Sharing examples will aid planning and development of adaptation in fisheries and aquaculture, and this compilation is intended to provide a starting point for planners, policy-makers, and practitioners who are involved in sectors related to fisheries and aquaculture around the globe. This introduction provides an overview of climate change impacts on fisheries and aquaculture. The presentation reviews potential mitigation and adaptation options for fisheries and aquaculture at various scales. This is followed by an overview of selected adaptation activities at various scales to demonstrate the types of activities underway or completed around the world, primarily in developing countries. This is not a comprehensive review of adaptation actions – there are other resources that provide more in-depth reviews of adaptation. However, this circular aims to provide examples of the kinds of adaptation activities specifically addressing fisheries and/or aquaculture.

“Climate Change 2013: The Physical Science Basis” – the newest report from the UN Intergovernmental Panel on Climate Change (IPCC) – offers the most detailed assessment of climate science ever. The 2,500 pages of scientific consensus make clear that human influence on the changing climate is more certain than ever.
Apart from the broad challenges for mankind, the impacts of climate change – rising temperatures, changes in rainfall patterns, rising sea levels, disappearing glaciers, and acidifying seawater – pose unforeseen risks for business and direct effects on many industrial sectors.
To help businesses better understand the implications of climate change, the University of Cambridge Judge Business School and the Cambridge Programme for Sustainability Leadership, with support from the European Climate Foundation, have produced a digestible 20-page summary of the IPCC report.
“A Summary of Findings from the UN’s Latest Climate Review: Actions, Trends and Implications for Business” is the second report in the Cambridge/ECF series. For more information on this project, email AR5@europeanclimate.org.

Climate Change Multiplies Existing Threats to the Ocean
Fisheries provide three billion people with around 20% of their
average intake of animal protein, and 400 million depend critically
on sh for food. Projected climate change impacts on sheries and
aquaculture are negative on a global scale; severely so in many regions.
The Economics of Fish Redistribution
Fisheries yield is projected to increase by 30–70%in high latitudes, but to fall
by 40–60% in the tropics and Antarctica, based on 2°C warming. Large species
such as tuna in the Pacific and Indian Oceans are likely to shift eastwards.
Global loss of landings is projected at USD17 to 41 billion up to 2050.
OPTIONS Undert‹ke vulner‹bility ‹ssessments. Strengthen co‹stal
zone m‹n‹gement. Reduce ‹qu‹culture dependence on fishme‹l.
Ded Zones re Becoming More Common
The extent of oxygen-depleted ‘dead zones’ in coastal waters is increasing.
These are caused by high levels of nutrient run-o˜ from land, exacerbated
by higher water temperatures and ocean acidification. In the open ocean,
the extent of ‘oxygen minimum zones’ (OMZs), caused by ocean warming,
also appears to be increasing. These waters are oxygen-poor in the
mid-layers and so are unable to support large active fish.
OPTIONS Re‹ssess ‹nd reinforce m‹rine protected ‹re‹s.
Protect m‹ngrove forests, se‹ gr‹ss beds ‹nd s‹lt m‹rshes.
Negtive Eects on Shellfish
Shellfish ‹re p‹rticul‹rly vulner‹ble to oce‹n ‹cidific‹tion ‹nd other
ch‹nges in oce‹n chemistry. Se‹son‹l upwelling of ‹cidic w‹ters onto
the continent‹l shelf in the C‹lifornia Current region h‹s been ‹˜ecting
oyster h‹tcheries ‹long the co‹st of W‹shington ‹nd Oregon, ‹lthough the
ex‹ct role of clim‹te ch‹nge is uncle‹r. However, if oce‹n pH continues to
f‹ll, over‹ll glob‹l production of shellfish fisheries is likely to decre‹se.
OPTIONS Reduce non-clim‹te ch‹nge-rel‹ted stressors. Policies ‹imed ‹t
reducing fossil fuel use ‹cross economies will ‹˜ect the se‹food industry.
Corl Reefs t Risk
Cor‹l reef ecosystems ‹re declining r‹pidly, with the risk of coll‹pse of
some co‹stal fisheries. If CO2 emissions continue to rise ‹t the current
r‹te, cor‹l reef erosion is likely to outp‹ce reef building during this
century. Incidences of cor‹l ble‹ching ‹s ‹ result of rising temper‹tures
‹re ‹lso likely to incre‹se, with ‹ consequent loss of support ‹nd h‹bit‹t
for fisheries ‹nd other m‹rine cre‹tures. Co‹st‹l protection ‹long with
food resources ‹nd income from tourism ‹re consequently ‹ll ‹t risk.
