The Fishery Friendly Climate Action Campaign uses community-building and peer leadership to unlock a groundswell of climate action led by "people in boots, not people in suits." The fishermen-led Campaign convenes conversations, circulates opportunities, strengthens networks, identifies shared values, builds capacity, and facilitates collaborative problem solving, with the goal of enabling members of the fishing community to become champions for climate action that is not only bold in its decarbonization ambitions, but sensitive to the ecosystems that sustain our families and nurture our communities. Participation in the Campaign’s activities is open to all members of the U.S. fishing community. Whether you’re a captain, boat owner, or deckhand; a seafood company executive, forklift driver, fish cutter, or port engineer; and whether you’re a seasoned climate leader or just a bit climate-curious: you will find a welcoming place in the Campaign to expand your learning and engagement.
