dc.descriptionThe signs are already here. Catching tuna in the wild has become more difficult. Big commercial fishing boats might still manage to chase them in deeper and more distant parts of the ocean, but what about the artisanal fishermen with small boats? They are left with fewer chances to catch tuna, which used to be abundant closer to shore. It is not only the worsening weather due to climate change that makes fishing harder. The food of the tuna — the smaller species of fish they depend on — has also become scarce. And here lies a problem: humans eat the same species that tuna feed on. That means we are competing directly with tuna for food. The more we eat of these small fish, the less food there is for tuna, pushing them to seek other feeding grounds, farther away.en
