A new study from a Stanford team is pulling back the curtain on the global fishing industry and a fleet of specialized"fish taxis."Staying "Climate Ready" can often mean staying aware of the impact we make with our choices.
"So what they allow is going out at sea and getting the cargo, bringing it back to port while the fishing vessels keep fishing. And that's the main job that they are doing," said researcher Jean-Baptiste Jouffray, Ph.D.Jouffray and fellow researcher Frida Bengtsson are with the Stanford Center for Ocean Solutions and the Stockholm Resilience Center in Sweden.
"But what has been unknown is who actually owns them. And that's partly because the way that global shipping is organized, which is quite an intricate kind of owning structure," Bengtsson said.
