Changes in our climate have a great impact on our food supplies. The problem is further amplified by continuous population growth. As a consequence, it is becoming quite clear that growing plants for food needs to be reimagined, as current methods would not be able to meet the demand. Using water and aquaculture methods may provide the solution. These systems are resilient and certainly more ecologically sustainable in the long run. In fact, some of these plants are able to mitigate the negative effects of climate and environment changes.
Key Takeaways:
- We need to come up with more solutions to feed the world and protect the economy.
- Our Ocean only provides 2% of our food and yet covers 71% of the planet.
- Aquaculture would also bring new economic development to costal communities and strengthen our food supply.
“Marine aquaculture, the growing of plants and animals in our oceans, is an important source of nutrition –and, research indicates, an emerging climate change solution.”
