- W2115938020 abstract "The more-than seven thousand islands of the Philippines dotted through the equatorial waters of the Pacific may resemble Paradise, but appearances can be misleading. In the midst of tropical beauty, 1.3 million people eek out an existence from fishing alone—an existence that has become more precarious each year. In a country where four of every ten people live in poverty, coastal villagers who depend solely upon fishing are returning home with fewer and fewer fish in their baskets. Fish stocks have plummeted in recent decades for myriad reasons—among them overexploitation of the fisheries; destructive fishing practices; rampant, unplanned and often illegal coastal development, and pollution. Although subsistence fishers outnumber commercial fishermen ten to one, they obtain only about 45 percent of the total catch. If these trends continue, the oceans of the Philippines will eventually become emptied of their once-bountiful marine life, the unique and beautiful coral reefs will perish, and the people who depend upon coastal resources will become even more desperately poor. When people are hungry, their need for food necessarily comes before their willingness to protect the environment—even if in the long run conservation will provide them with more food. So any attempts to protect the oceans and marine life in the Philippines must also provide clear and clearly understood benefits—including more fish—to coastal people." @default.
