Global climate target could net additional six million tons of fish annually
The researchers found that some oceans are more sensitive to changes in temperature, and will have substantially larger gains from achieving the Paris Agreement.
Future fisheries can expect $10-billion revenue loss due to climate change
Global fisheries stand to lose approximately $10 billion of their annual revenue by 2050 if climate change continues unchecked
High seas fisheries management could recoup losses due to climate change
Strengthening governance and closing the high seas to fishing increased the resilience of coastal countries to climate change, especially in tropical countries where there is a high dependence on fisheries for food and livelihood.
Falling fish catches could mean malnutrition in the developing world
Global fish catches peaked in 1996, while the Earth’s human population is expected to rise through 2050, from the current 7.3 billion to between nine and 10 billion.
Climate change could cut First Nations fisheries’ catch in half
The study finds that coastal First Nations communities could suffer economic losses between $6.7 and $12 million annually by 2050.
Fish will have to find new habitats or perish if global warming is left unchecked

Seafood supply altered by climate change
People will not be able to enjoy the same quantity or dishes in the future
Fish moving poleward at rate of 26 kilometres per decade
