    Self-Governance for Sustainability in Coupled Human-Natural Systems

    Xavier Basurto is broadly interested in how people in small communities successfully organize themselves for collective action. His recent talk described his work in advancing the understanding of non-colonialist sustainability science: the prospects and limitations of self-organization, or self-governance, for social-ecological sustainability, particularly in the Global South.

    Future of Many North American Crops May Depend on Ground Beetles’ Response to Climate Change

    A new study by researchers at Penn State University, 91ÉçÇø¸£Àû, and the University of Saskatchewan suggests not all of the nearly 2,000 species of ground beetles found in North America will thrive under climate change. Some could decline. And that could have far-reaching implications for agriculture, forestry, and conservation.

    Policies that Treat 'Fish as Food' Could Help Solve World Hunger, Scientists Say

    Policies that more strongly recognize the value of sustainable seafood as a source of nutrition, not just a source of livelihoods, could strengthen global food security and help take a big bite out of world hunger, a new analysis by an international team of experts shows.

    Vessel-Tracking Data Reveals Identities of Companies Profiting from High Seas Fishing

    Researchers have used automatic identification systems (AIS) satellite data and other spatial analysis tools to identify more than 1,000 companies that fish in the high seas—waters that lie outside national jurisdiction where fishing has raised fears about environmental and labor violations.

    Governance of Small-Scale Fisheries Must Encompass Activities Before and After the Catch

    To devise effective and equitable policies for governing small-scale fisheries, policymakers need to consider the activities and relationships that occur before and after fishers land their catches, not just the catches themselves, a new study shows.

    New U.N. High-Seas Treaty Must Close Gaps in Biodiversity Governance

    Thousands of marine species could be at risk if a new United Nations high-seas biodiversity treaty, now being negotiated in New York, does not include measures to address the management of all fish species in international waters, not just the commercial species, warns an analysis by American, Dutch, Swiss and French researchers.
