Climate Change Impacts on Finnish Winter Seining Fishery

LIFE members from Snowchange Cooperative raise the alarm: ice melting is leading to the disappearance of the traditional seining fishery season. Back in the 1960s, the harvest could start in November and end in May, but fifty years after the season could be reduced to just a few weeks between February and March. This is having dramatic consequences on the livelihoods of local communities.
