“…This study is based on the optimization model of the network which found that countries with higher carbon emission costs such as China, India, and Russia will bear more responsibility, and there are differences in the industrial structure changes of countries [28]. Based on the Ocean-based Solutions Carbon Reduction Assessment Model (OSCRAM), the study found that the ocean has great potential to reduce carbon emissions, and the development of ocean energy and low-carbon ocean shipping may have even greater potential to reduce carbon emissions in China [29]. By reviewing relevant literature, we find that there are generally two kinds of actions for developed countries and developing countries to fulfill CO2 emission reduction targets: full implementation and non-implementation.…”

Based on the Paris Agreement's principle of institutional arrangement for independent contributions to reduce CO2 emissions, we divided the Paris Agreement Parties into developed and developing countries as a game between the two sides. Under the assumption of limited rationality, the selection strategies of both sides are divided into three categories: strict adherence, partial compliance, and non-compliance. Using evolutionary game theory and methods to analyze the game strategies chosen by both sides, and using simulation methods to verify the scenarios under different parameters, the game subjects both strictly adhere to the carbon reduction agreement and do not perform the optimal strategy choice. We find that the developed countries' strict adherence to carbon reduction commitments has a very significant positive impact on carbon reduction in other countries. Therefore, we propose that it is a prerequisite for the developed countries to strictly adhere to the treaty obligations, which is the prerequisite for the implementation of the global carbon reduction target, and the developing countries' strict adherence to the treaty obligations is the key to realizing the goal. Moreover, we suggest that the international community should strengthen the supervision and implementation of the Paris Agreement, and provide more support and assistance to developing countries to ensure the successful implementation of the Paris Agreement.

“…[31] calculated that CO 2 emissions were primarily caused by indirect emissions, which is perhaps a debatable result. Regardless of the research cited above, China has long been the largest source of carbon emissions in the world's marine fisheries; this also indicates that China has a great deal of room to cut emissions [32].…”

The CO2 emissions from marine fisheries have a significant impact on marine ecology, despite generally being overlooked in studies on global climate change. Few studies have estimated the carbon emissions from marine fisheries while taking into account all pertinent sectors. This study evaluated marine fisheries’ CO2 emissions based on three sectors: marine fishing, mariculture, and the marine aquatic product processing industry. Kernel density estimation and the spatial Durbin model were used to investigate the spatial and temporal characteristics and the key socioeconomic drivers of the CO2 emissions from marine fisheries in 11 coastal provinces of China from 2005 to 2020. The results are as follows: (1) marine fishing is the sector that produces the most CO2 emissions; trawling operations generate more CO2 than all other modes of operation combined; (2) China’s marine fisheries’ CO2 emissions show a rising, then declining, trend, with significant differences in coastal provinces; (3) the development of the marine fishery economy and trade have a positive driving effect on CO2 emissions, the expansion of the tertiary industry does not decrease CO2, the technical advancement and income growth of fishermen are negatively related to carbon emissions, and the effect of environmental regulation has failed to pass the significance test; (4) the carbon emissions of marine fisheries have significant spatial spillover effects.

“…Other studies have indicated that fermentation can hydrolyze higher molecular weight proteins into lower molecular weight oligopeptides and break down peptide bonds to release amino acids, thereby increasing the digestibility of the protein (Ketnawa and Ogawa, 2019;Mohapatra et al, 2019). Fermentation of seaweeds can also be conducted to reduce the compounds that are responsible for offflavors and thus enhance compounds that are beneficial for aroma and taste through a series of oxidation, degradation, condensation, and polymerization reactions (Feng et al, 2021). This could consequently improve palatability of the diets leading to higher voluntary feed intake.…”

Prospects of dietary seaweeds and their bioactive compounds in sustainable poultry production systems: A symphony of good things?

Modern poultry production systems face numerous economic, environmental, and social sustainability challenges that threaten their viability and acceptability as a major source of animal protein. As scientists and producers scramble to find cost-effective and socially acceptable solutions to these challenges, the dietary use of marine macroalgae (seaweeds) could be an ingenious option. Indeed, the incredible array of nutritive and bioactive compounds present in these macroscopic marine organisms can be exploited as part of sustainable poultry production systems of the future. Incorporating seaweeds in poultry diets could enhance feed utilization efficiency, growth performance, bird health, meat stability and quality, and consumer and environmental health. Theoretically, these benefits are mediated through the putative antiviral, antibacterial, antifungal, antioxidant, anticarcinogenic, anti-inflammatory, anti-allergic, antithrombotic, neuroprotective, hypocholesterolemic, and hypoglycemic properties of seaweed bioactive compounds. Despite this huge potential, exploitation of seaweed for poultry production appears to be constrained by a variety of factors such as high fibre, phenolics, and ash content. In addition, conflicting findings are often reported when seaweeds or their extracts are used in poultry feeding trials. Therefore, the purpose of this review paper is to collate information on the production, phytochemical components, and nutritive value of different seaweed species. It provides an overview of in vivo effects of dietary seaweeds as measured by nutrient utilization efficiency, growth performance, and product quality and stability in poultry. The utility of dietary seaweeds in sustainable poultry production systems is explored, while gaps that require further research are highlighted. Finally, opportunities that exist for enhancing the utility of seaweeds as a vehicle for sustainable production of functional poultry products for better global food and nutrition security are presented.
