This product is free for WH DPG members.

This webinar was presented live on December 2, 2020.

Seafood consumption has nearly doubled worldwide in the last decade, but fish stocks have not kept pace. Sea life at all levels of the food chain is at risk. Although plastics and other environmental issues have harmed the ocean, nearly all of this can drill down to one thing - consumption. To ensure the vitality of our fish supply - and our continued nutritional benefit from them - we have to evolve our relationship with ocean's resources and those that either farm or harvest them. The key is adaption in an effort to make the harvesting of fish and the rearing of fish more sustainable and nutritious for the long-term. In this webinar, learn about the changing shape of our oceans, how we are farming fish for nutrition and planet - all in an effort to provide a nutritious and sustainable protein for a growing population.
