OVERFISHING DESTORYING THE COASTS

By Stacy Harris | Program Manager

Fishermen are poaching the coast

Overfishing has become a worldwide phenomenon, especially in Africa. The coastline of Kenya is literally becoming a desert. The El Nino of 1988 infliced considerable damage to the reefs, resulting in the bleaching of the coral.

We are engaged with the Kanami fishing group on the coast of Kenya as we begin a pioneering process which includes training fishermen on how to build a new style of artificial reef, and then how to manage it to be continuously productive in the long-term.

The process will proved relief to the rest of the marine environment to begin recovering from the severe deprivations and degradation of weather and overfishing.

Thank you for your support and helping us combat global warming!
