Marques1; Andre Z. Boaratti1; Dalton Belmudes1; Julia R. C. Ferreira1; Paulo V. L. Mantoan1; Patricia Moraes-Valenti1; Wagner C.

This study evaluated if the culture of complementary ecological- function species can recover nutrients dispersed into the water and transform them into high-valued biomass. A completely randomized experiment was designed with three treatments and four replications of each production system: monoculture of lambari (Astyanax lacustris); integrated aquaculture of lambari and Amazon river prawn (Macrobrachium amazonicum); and integrated aquaculture of lambari, Amazon river prawn, and curimbatá (Prochilodus lineatus). Fingerlings of lambari (0.8 ± 0.8 g) were stocked in twelve earthen- ponds (0.015 ha) at the density of 50 fish m-2. Eight ponds, were stocked with juveniles of Amazon river prawn (1.1 ± 0.2 g) at the density of 25 prawn m−2. Four of these eight ponds were stocked with curimbatá fingerlings (0.2 ± 0.1 g) at a density of 13 fish m-². Only lambari was fed twice a day with an extruded commercial diet.

  • Fishery Basics – Seafood Markets Where Are Fish Sold?
    Fishery Basics – Seafood Markets Where Are Fish Sold? Fisheries not only provide a vital source of food to the global population, but also contribute between $225-240 billion annually to the worldwide economy. Much of this economic stimulus comes from the sale and trade of fishery products. The sale of fishery products has evolved from being restricted to seaside towns into a worldwide market where buyers can choose from fish caught all over the globe. Like many other commodities, fisheries markets are fluctuating constantly. In recent decades, seafood imports into the United States have increased due to growing demands for cheap seafood products. This has increased the amount of fish supplied by foreign countries, expanded efforts in aquaculture, and increased the pursuit of previously untapped resources. In 2008, the National Marine Fisheries Service (NMFS) reported (pdf) that the U.S. imported close to 2.4 million t (5.3 billion lbs) of edible fishery products valued at $14.2 billion dollars. Finfish in all forms (fresh, frozen, and processed) accounted for 48% of the imports and shellfish accounted for an additional 36% of the imports. Overall, shrimp were the highest single-species import, accounting for 24% of the total fishery products imported into the United States. Tuna and Salmon were the highest imported finfish accounting for 18% and 10% of the total imports respectively. The majority of fishery products imported came from China, Thailand, Canada, Indonesia, Vietnam, Ecuador, and Chile. The U.S. exported close to 1.2 million t (2.6 billion lbs) valued at $3.99 billion in 2008.

  • Promoting Action on Plastic Pollution from Source to Sea in Asia and The
    Promoting Action on Plastic Pollution from Source to Sea in Asia and the Pacific Subproject 1: Enhancing Knowledge and Creating Enabling Environments for Reducing Marine Plastic Pollution (53068-002) TERMS OF REFERENCE FOR CONSULTANTS A. Background 1. The knowledge and support technical assistance (TA) cluster will support ADB’s developing member countries’ (DMCs) deliver on their commitments to reduce marine plastic pollution from 'source to sea’. The TA will support action planning to reduce marine plastic pollution, policy and regulatory reform to enable circular economy, pilot demonstration projects, and the preparation of investments in integrated solid waste management (ISWM) systems. The TA will also promote and facilitate regional cooperation, knowledge sharing, and the mobilization of further resources to support action on oceans health and circular economy. 2. Two subprojects have been defined under the TA cluster: (1) Enhancing Knowledge and Creating Enabling Environments for Reducing Marine Plastic Pollution expected to be approved in November 2019 and (2) Prioritizing and Implementing Actions to Reduce Marine Plastic Pollution expected to be approved in the first quarter of 2020. B. Subproject 1 Outcome, Outputs, Methods, and Activities 3. TA Subproject 1 supports TA cluster outputs 1, 2, and 3. It comprises outputs and activities focused on filling critical information gaps for the region (particularly on infrastructure and technology needs), creating enabling environments for addressing marine plastic pollution through policy reforms and institutional strengthening, and identifying and responding to immediate plastic pollution reduction opportunities. It also includes a focus on awareness of solutions and facilitating regional cooperation and south-south knowledge sharing, and on mobilizing finance for reducing marine plastic pollution and improving ocean health.

Bestor Department of Anthropology and East Asian Institute Columbia University Introduction As an anthropologist specializing in Japanese studies, I am often struck by the uncharacteristic willingness of economists to consider cultural and social factors in their analyses of Japan. Probably the economic system of no society is subject to as much scrutiny, analysis, and sheer speculation regarding its 'special character' as is Japan's. Put another way, emphasis on the special qualities of the Japanese economy suggests a recognition -- implicit or explicit -- that cultural values and social patterns condition economic systems. It remains an open question whether this recognition reflects empirical reality (e.g., perhaps the Japanese economic system is less autonomous than those in other societies) or is an artifact of interpretative conventions (e.g., perhaps both Western and Japanese observers are willing -- if at times antagonistic - partners in ascribing radical 'otherness' to the Japanese economy and therefore are more likely to accord explanatory power to factors that might otherwise be considered exogenous.) Recognition, however, that Japanese economic behavior and institutions are intertwined with and embedded within systems of cultural values and social structural relationships does not imply unanimity of opinion about the significance of this fact.

  • From Deep Ecology to the Blue Economy 2011
    The Blue Economy From Deep Ecology to The Blue Economy A review of the main concepts related to environmental, social and ethical business that contributed to the creation of The Blue Economy written by Gunter Pauli February 2011 based on an original article written by the same author in 1999 © 2011, Gunter Pauli If I can see beyond the green economy today, It is thanks to the giants on whose shoulders I stand Environmental deterioration and the imbalance between man and nature increasingly preoccupy scholars, philosophers, businessmen and policy makers alike. The disparity between rich and poor and the continuous incapacity to respond to the basic needs of all (not only humans) preoccupies many. It seems that the only sustainable phenomena of our modern time is the loss of biodiversity and our incapacity to eliminate poverty. Even though we all look reality in the eye, we seem to lack the vision and the tools to make a difference and steer our excessive consumption society in general and our competitive business world towards sustainability. Our media continue to report on the loss of forest cover, biodiversity, and human dignity. My concern has always been: in spite of the statistics showing the downward trends, what can I do to make a material difference on the ground. Since the 1950s we have seen a series of ideas and conceptual frameworks that have emerged from studies that illustrate the disconnect between our exploitative culture and the Earth's limited resources. This document attempts to summarize the most important persons and organizations whose work has greatly influenced my present thinking on business, environment, social development and ethics.
