And now a burgeoning number of new and veteran fishermen are responding to the decline of old, wild-caught fisheries by adapting their risk-taking and resilience, aided by biological breakthroughs, to become farmers of the sea, especially of the world's most beloved bivalves - oysters.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eUp and down the coast, they're creating a virtually new industry in Maine that's becoming a model for other aquaculturalists around the world. They're doing this in a changing natural environment (good and bad for them) caused by global warming and while facing such man made challenges as NIMBYism, as they respond to Americans' growing appetite for their delicious crops. In doing so, they're making the coastal waters where they farm healthier for all life while brightening the social and economic future of Maine's coastal communities.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=AUTH-15822993\"\u003eWilliam Perna\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Perna Content\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 12\/05\/2022\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 148\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBinding Type:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 1.08lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 8.50h x 11.00w x 0.38d\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9780578715629\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN10:\u003c\/b\u003e 0578715627\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eBISAC Categories:\u003c\/b\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-NAT\"\u003eNature\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-NAT025000\"\u003eEcosystems \u0026amp; Habitats | Oceans \u0026amp; Seas\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-EDU\"\u003eEducation\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-EDU000000\"\u003eGeneral\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e- \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=CAT-TEC\"\u003eTechnology \u0026amp; Engineering\u003c\/a\u003e | \u003ca href=\"https:\/\/sureshotbooks-com.myshopify.com\/search?type=product%2Carticle%2Cpage\u0026amp;q=BISAC-TEC049000\"\u003eFisheries \u0026amp; Aquaculture\u003c\/a\u003e\u003cbr\u003e","brand":"Perna Content","offers":[{"title":"Default Title","offer_id":44497687544045,"sku":"9780578715629","price":40.0,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0550\/8097\/6621\/products\/img_bc231214-7292-48bf-a005-5e7fa91f3eed.jpg?v=1700953855","url":"https:\/\/sureshotbooks.com\/es\/products\/maine-oysters-stories-of-resilience-innovation-9780578715629","provider":"SureShot Books Publishing LLC","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
