Marine and freshwater food systems support the livelihoods of roughly 800 million people worldwide, according to the Blue Food Assessment. And these foods provide essential nutrients to more than 3 billion eaters, the U.N. Food and Agriculture Organization reports. But these aquatic ecosystems are facing significant stress, with a study in Nature Sustainability showing that more than 90 percent of blue food production is at risk due to environmental changes. This is true across the globe, but major producers across Asia and the United States are up against some of the greatest threats.
the team at Fed By Blueâbehind the docuseries âHope in the Waterâ to nonprofit leaders like Imani Black of Minorities in Aquaculture, says there are advocates working to make blue food systems more resilient to future shocks and more inclusive.
