Fisheries Centre Director Dr. Rashid Sumaila's call to split fisheries at home and abroad

In "Overfishing: Call to split fisheries at home and abroad," published online in Nature on January 18, Fisheries Centre Director Dr. Rashid Sumaila argues that "a combination of measures is needed" to combat overfishing, "including the elimination of overfishing subsidies." Dr. Sumaila proposes that the "answer is to split the world's fisheries into domestic and international ones. [...] This split is necessary because the incentives to eliminate overfishing subsidies differ according to whether a fishery is domestic or international." Get the full story here
