Collaboration between science and business to save the ocean On one hand our ocean provides to the human populations an importante quantity of valuable food (like fish and shellfish). On the other hand seafood is an important business for some powerful companies. But now our ocean is in danger because theses companies want to make too much too fast money from marine ecosystems. Overfishing and unsustainable fish farming threaten health of ocean and the creatures in it. If theses compagnies don't work in a responsible way, the environment will suffer and seafood stocks could run out. Worse, the whole Earth could be impacted because the ocean is a key link of the life. Some scientists collected and analyzed data about seafood companies over a period of 2 years. They identified the biggest seafood compagnies which caught and sold the most of the fish in the World. Then they met the CEOs of theses compagnies to share theirs scientific knowledge about how to interact with the ocean in a sustainable way. Scientists and business people decided to work together to find some sustainable business plans in the long term. Eventually the companies created and signed the "Seafood Business for Ocean Stewardship" agreement. The agreement objectives are : -Stopping illegal fishing, -Ending forced labour of seafood worker, -Reducing the use of antibiotics in seafood production. This case of successful science-business partnership shows it's a good way to reduce human activities on the planet. This method gives quicker and larger results than the environmental policies created by the govements of each countries.
