1.
Climate change will affect fish and their habitats. Warmer temperatures will influence the abundance, migratory patterns and mortality rates of wild fish stocks and determine what species can be farmed in certain regions.These climatic effects on fish will have social and economic consequences for people dependent on fisheries and aquaculture - from workers to coastal communities to consumers of fish.
2.Global total capture fisheries production was 90.9 million tonnes in 2016, a small decrease in comparison to the two previous years. World total marine catch was 81.2 million tonnes in 2015 and 79.3 million tonnes in 2016. Catches of anchoveta (Engraulis ringens) by Peru and Chile, which are often substantial yet highly variable because of the influence of El Niño, accounted for 1.1 million tonnes of this decrease (Tables 2 and 3). Decreasing catches affected 64 percent of the 25 top producer countries (China, Indonesia, United States of America, Russian Federation, Peru, India, Japan, Viet Nam, Norway, Philippines, Malaysia, Chile, Morocco, Republic of Korea, Thailand, Mexico, Myanmar, Iceland, Spain, Canada, Taiwan, Province of China, Argentina, Ecuador, United Kingdom, Denmark ), but only 37 percent of the remaining 170 countries.
Total marine catches by China, the world’s top producer by far, were stable in 2016, but the inclusion of a progressive catch reduction policy in the national Thirteenth Five-Year Plan for 2016–2020 is expected to result in significant decreases in coming years, with a predicted reduction of more than 5 million tonnes by 2020. As in 2014, Alaska pollock (Theragra chalcogramma) again surpassed anchoveta as the top species in 2016, with the highest catches since 1998. However, preliminary data for 2017 showed a significant recovery of anchoveta catches. Skipjack tuna (Katsuwonus pelamis) ranked third for the seventh consecutive year. All the most valuable species groups with significant production – lobsters, gastropods, crabs and shrimps, with an estimated average value by group of USD 8 800 to USD 3 800 per tonne – marked a new catch record in 2016.
Total global catch in inland waters was 11.6 million tonnes in 2016, an increase of 2.0 percent over the previous year and of 10.5 percent in comparison to the 2005–2014 average. In 2016, 16 countries, mostly in Asia, produced almost 80 percent of these catches. The continuously increasing trend of inland fisheries production may be misleading, however, as some of the increase can be attributed to improved reporting and assessment at the country level and may not be entirely due to increased production.
3.The Extractive Sector Transparency Measures Act (ESTMA) was enacted by the Parliament of Canada in December 2014 and came into force on June 1, 2015.
The Act requires businesses to publicly report certain payments they make to all levels of government in Canada and abroad in relation to the commercial development of oil, gas and minerals. The purpose of the ESTMA is to deter corruption in the global extractive sector by making government revenues from natural resources transparent to the public. The reports will be made available on publicly accessible websites by reporting businesses, and a link to every report submitted will be available on the ESTMA website.
The Act responds to a commitment that Canada made at the 2013 G8 Leaders’ Summit; where leaders agreed to raise global standards of transparency in the extractive sector, reduce the potential for corruption, and ensure that citizens benefit fully from the extraction of natural resources.

1. How does climate change inspire people to migrate and what is the impact of this migration? 2. From now until 2050, the human population is expected to grow bigger, more slowly, older, and more urban. Of these four factors, which do you think will have the biggest effect on the climate or environment? 3. In the U.S., more and more people are living alone in their own homes and buying their own cars instead of living with family or...
How does social media affect the process of globalization? Give examples. In what ways does social media help in creating global communities? Discuss other positive influences of social media. What might be the adverse effects of excessive use of social media?
2-4 Explain in one short paragraph how less reliable climate change forecasts of what will happen in the future cause less effort to reduce the impacts of climate change. 2. 3. Consider the impacts of using land for fruits and berries rather than a park. Turning the land into a park would lower benefits of these healthy foods for consumers by $10 million per year and that impact would last forever. (Assume farmers and other businesses would make equal profit...
