Illegal fishing and land grabs push Cambodian coastal communities to the brink
Follow Mongabay journalist Gerry Flynn as he travels to Cambodia's coast to investigate the impact of rampant illegal fishing and onshore development on coastal communities.
Fish catches in Cambodia's waters have dropped precipitously in recent years, and so have small-scale fishers’ incomes. The problem, they say, is that commercial trawlers have been illegally entering their fishing grounds, scraping the sea clean of life and, with it, their community’s ability to survive. And its not just at sea they are facing problems. Cambodia's coastline is being bought up by private companies with influential connections, forcing fishers off their land and leaving them fighting for survival.

The world is addicted to toilet paper. In 2023 alone, 45.96 billion kilograms of toilet paper were sold worldwide, and the number is set to rise. Toilet paper has been linked to deforestation around the world, intensive energy use, and toxic chemicals in our waterways. But only 30% of the world actually uses it. So is there a better way of getting ourselves clean, or are we too attached to our ...

    This was too frustrating to listen to in one session. Taken as a whole, I don't think the interview puts either participant in a good light.

  • @ronaldgarrison8478

    Almost everyone commenting on "degrowth," on whatever side, seems to be profoundly confused about what economic growth even means. Here, both the interviewer and interviewee seem very much in that pattern. I can't take their comments seriously, when they haven't even clearly defined their terms.

      Sharing the video and spreading the word would help. The government tries to suppress this type of reporting and people speaking out so when they do, it's with great risk and sacrifice. We can make sure they are heard. Hopefully the international community, particularly those countries pouring money into conservation and development will exert some pressure for the Cambodian government to uphold its own laws.

    The Cambodian and Chinese governments are directly to blame for destroying the peoples lives, and our oceans. China is also illegally killing millions of sharks every year for shark fins, and trawl fishing all over the world. Who will stand up and physically stop corrupt China? ...no one. China is taking over the world economically and destroying the ecosystems we need to survive

    First need to have several sanctuary areas to help with bio diversity and to hopefully be used when population gets larger. The second is to seek aid from foreigners who have experience in breeding and also seeking financial aid from groups who help in assisting in saving animals. The third is to educate the locals in what a beautiful creature that they have and how help is need to save these beautiful rhino's from extinction.

    Are the people of the forest aware that they could live healthy lives by eating a vegetarian diet? Many of us in the industrialized world do not eat meat at all, even though it is available everywhere. Could they not farm and grow all their own food and even sell it to others if they plant enough. I'm just curious, since I don't know much about their lifestyle and culture.

    Most so-called Humans do not see themselves as animals. "We;re not animals, we're above them. Sadly, these creatures do not see themselves as a part of Nature. Be they rich or poor. "The Right To Roam" needs much more coverage throughout the media.
