“…Notably, several large GHG emitters, such as the United States, have no measurable seaweed aquaculture production. Thus, there is clear scope for scaling seaweed aquaculture to offset carbon emissions, but an array of economic, social, and political barriers likely exist, as they do for the aquaculture sector in general [26]. Nonetheless, an important first question is whether farming seaweeds can offset emissions from its own sector, global aquaculture, to set the stage for recognition and possible movement in the industry to be carbon conscious.…”

“…This potential is expected to decrease under climate change [88] but breeding a larger proportion of stocks for fast growth could more than offset these negative impacts [89]. Expanding mariculture under climate change will require (1) streamlining permitting for sustainable mariculture in highly regulated countries where mariculture growth has often been slow [90][91][92][93]; (2) promoting better practices in weakly regulated countries where mariculture growth has often been rapid and less sustainable [92,93]; and (3) promoting access to financial resources such as credit and insurance in countries where mariculture production has yet to develop [94]. Although mariculture has the potential to feed millions of people, it also poses a number of environmental problems including pollution, habitat conversion, disease and parasite transmission, and escapement and hybridization [95].…”

“…Future interactions of this study will invest in revisiting and complementing the fisheries model. For example, we will update to new versions of catch and fishing effort datasets (Watson, 2017;Watson and Tidd, 2018), new data on illegal, unreported, and unregulated catches, global demands and impacts of marine aquaculture (Pauly and Zeller, 2016;Davies et al, 2019;FAO, 2020) and projections of seafood demand (e.g., Maury et al, 2017;FishMIP-ISIMIP, 2020). Future studies can include the further characterization of ecosystem overfishing at the global level (Coll et al, 2008a;Link and Watson, 2019) and the exploration of alternative pathways to reduce it and avoid it.…”
