Produktbeschreibung
Sea Change is the captivating, deeply-human tale of how fishermen--along with some unlikely allies--helped carry out the biggest conservation success story you've never heard of. Exploring a win for the world's most vital ecosystem, Sea Change tells the story of unlikely partnerships and surprising solutions that are quietly revolutionizing the fishing industry. Like other ocean areas, the Gulf Coast fisheries were being fished out to the detriment of wildlife and the people whose livelihoods and communities hinge on sea catch. Fisherman Keith "Buddy" Guindon had followed every suggested policy and practice to no avail, until he - along with scientists, government agencies, and environmental groups - helped lead real change that is preventing overfishing and securing resource longevity. Sea Change demonstrates that success is possible, that the time is now, and the methods are here to conserve our natural world and the people who depend on it.
