Seafood is a primary food source for billions of people around the world. Unfortunately, demand for seafood has given rise to overfishing and other unsustainable harvesting practices. Seafood security will continue to be a major issue in the Gulf of Maine and around the world as our seaweed, shellfish, and finfish resources are threatened by declining ocean health.
The lecture will be presented by Dr. Nichole Price and will discuss the question, “Is seafood secure?” This event is free and open to the public.
Lectures will also be live-streamed at live.bigelow.org.
For more information, contact the laboratory at (207) 315-2567 or info@bigelow.org. Go to bigelow.org for more information
