A study by the University of British Columbia compared the economic and environmental impact of holding the global average temperature rise to 1.5 degrees Celsius, as agreed in Paris in 2015, versus the current 3.5 degrees warming scenario.
Millions of people could lose their livelihoods, food source, and be forced from their homes if the world does not meet the Paris goal to curb global warming which is endangering fish numbers.
“This can turn into a massive crisis as it could cause forced migration not only locally but globally,” Sumaila told the Thomson Reuters Foundation. “A steady supply of fish is essential to support these jobs, food sovereignty, and human well-being.”
Just how many scientists are sitting there with fingers-crossed, wishing for the best and hoping no unexpected findings are going to be revealed to upset projections?
