Summary: The marine fisheries sector in South Africa is important for income and food security, but documents related to fisheries management rarely address climate change impacts and adaptation. There is a need for more explicit inclusion of information on climate change impacts and adaptation in order to ensure the sector can effectively adapt to climate change.

Summary: This study compares the environmental impacts of wild salmon and farmed salmon in terms of greenhouse gas emissions, land use, and contaminant content, and finds that wild salmon has lower impacts in these aspects. The study provides recommendations for improvement options and supply chain optimization to facilitate the development of more sustainable salmon products.

Summary: Making food systems more sustainable is a major challenge for humanity. Life cycle assessment research has provided valuable insights for addressing this challenge. However, comparing the environmental impacts of different food products based on existing literature is challenging and requires more transparent and consistent methods. Through examples, we suggest best practices to enhance the aggregation of life cycle assessment studies in order to guide sustainable food systems.

Summary: This study provides a systematic summary of the pollution status, sources, and pathways of microplastics in aquaculture systems. It reveals that microplastics can adsorb and transfer other pollutants, leading to adverse impacts on aquaculture organisms and human health. The study also offers recommendations for controlling microplastic pollution.

Summary: China, as the world's largest producer of aquaculture and capture fisheries, has seen significant changes in its aquaculture industry over the years. While there has been a strong relationship between marine aquaculture and wild fisheries from 1989 to 2002, the impact of freshwater aquaculture has increased from 2003 to 2018. Despite the ongoing pressure on marine wild fisheries, China's aquaculture is moving towards a sustainable development pattern with low input and high output.

Summary: This study utilized environmental DNA (eDNA) metabarcoding to identify 153 fish species potentially consumed in fish markets and nearby seafood restaurants, demonstrating the feasibility of large-scale seafood identification using this approach. The results suggest that species diversity in traditional seafood may be seriously underestimated, highlighting the importance for conservation and management of marine resources.

Summary: Shrimp aquaculture has led to global mangrove deforestation, with Ecuador being a major producer of farmed Pacific whiteleg shrimp. This paper analyzes the impact on a mangrove-dependent community in Ecuador, particularly focusing on the disproportionate effects on women. The introduction of industrial shrimp farming has increased the community's reliance on mangrove resources, leading to a depletion of mangrove cockle populations and vulnerability for both men and women who depend on this fishery for survival.

Summary: Small-scale fisheries and aquaculture (SSFA) support the livelihoods and food security of over 1 billion people in the Global South, with strong adaptability but facing increasing threats and challenges. The diversity of SSFA is often overlooked in governance actions, highlighting the need for policies that support their viability and role in food systems.

Summary: This study evaluates how residents' perceptions of event environmental certification impact their evaluations of environmental impact and event support, with moderation from place attachment. The findings suggest that environmental certification can influence residents' support for events, but the relationship is complex and moderated by place attachment.

Summary: Aquaculture activities have rapidly expanded and raised concerns about the impact of wastewater on the environment. Various technologies, including biological, physical, and chemical treatments, have been proposed and researched to effectively treat aquaculture effluent. It is recommended to implement regulations for sustainable aquaculture development.

Summary: The vulnerability of global aquatic or 'blue' food systems to environmental changes and their spatial impacts have been quantified. Over 90% of global blue food production is at substantial risk from environmental change, with major producers in Asia and the United States facing the greatest threats. Identifying and supporting mitigation and adaptation measures in response to environmental stressors is crucial for developing countries with high risks and limited response capacities.

Summary: Fisheries and aquaculture can contribute significantly to the achievement of several Sustainable Development Goals by 2030, but the current COVID-19 pandemic poses challenges to the fisheries sector, hindering progress towards these goals. Immediate comprehensive action is required to address the negative impacts of COVID-19 on the fisheries sector and avoid threats to various SDGs.

Summary: The COVID-19 pandemic has both positive and negative impacts on aquatic ecosystems and environments. While reduced human activities led to improved water quality, the surge of plastics and biomedical wastes during the pandemic increased the risk of aquatic pollution, negatively affecting fisheries and aquaculture industries.
