Urban and Community Fisheries Programs - Development and Management

Akshay Kothari

Beschreibung

"Urban and Community Fisheries Programs: Development and Management" offers a comprehensive guide to establishing and managing sustainable fishing opportunities in urban environments. We target undergraduate students and provide foundational knowledge and practical tools necessary for success. As urban populations grow, the need for recreational activities and connections with nature becomes critical. Urban fisheries programs address this by creating sustainable fishing opportunities within or near cities, promoting well-being, community engagement, and environmental awareness.
We navigate the three key stages of an urban fisheries program:
• Development: Identifying suitable water bodies, assessing fish populations, and considering factors like public access, safety regulations, and infrastructure needs. Community engagement is emphasized to ensure programs reflect the unique needs of the target population.
• Management: Effective management through fish stocking strategies, habitat improvement, and protocols for monitoring fish populations and water quality. We explore responsible fishing practices and promote ethical angling.
• Evaluation: Regular assessments through metrics such as angler participation, satisfaction levels, and contributions to conservation efforts. We equip readers with skills to evaluate program success.
Featuring real-world case studies, our book illustrates successful approaches to urban fisheries programs globally. This guide is a call to action, fostering accessible recreational opportunities and environmental stewardship. It is the perfect starting point for anyone eager to contribute to a sustainable and nature-connected urban future.

Earth in Flames - How an...

Alan Robock, Owen Brian Toon

Sixty-six million years ago an asteroid as large as Mt. Everest hit what is now the Yucatan Peninsula at a speed ten times faster than the fastest rifle bullet. Debris from the impact blew into space, re-entered the atmosphere as a swarm of shooting stars that burned the global forests and grasslands, leaving behind a thin global layer containing rock from the asteroid and from Mexico, and smoke from the fires. This layer marks one of the greatest extinctions in Earth history including not just dinosaurs, but also fish, plankton, ammonites, and plants making up about 75% of the known species. 
 
 
 
A nuclear war with just a few hundred of the world's 12,000 nuclear weapons targeted on densely populated cities could plunge Earth into the same types of conditions that the dinosaurs experienced. Even a war between India and Pakistan could kill 1 to 3 billion people from starvation due to agricultural failure, while 6 billion people might starve following a war involving Russia, NATO, and the U.S. 
 
 
 
The book describes how the dinosaurs died, and how their deaths parallel what might happen to people after a nuclear war. The book reflects on the odds of future asteroid impacts, how to stop them, and ends with what the listeners personally and together can do to prevent a nuclear war, so that humans don't end up like the dinosaurs.
