Program Title: Terra Informa 7-34: Volcanoes, Urban Chicken Farming, and Improved Fisheries Management
Description: Is it possible that by grounding planes across Europe the eruption of the Eyjafjallajokull volcano in Iceland has actually had a positive effect on the environment? Rebekah finds out. Urban agriculture has been gaining popularity as both a leisure activity and a means of improving local food security. Myles brings us a piece exploring the potential for back yard chicken farming in Canadian cities. And fisheries provide the world with a crucial source of food, but in recent years we’ve seen the collapse of several major stocks. Dave speaks to economist and fisheries expert Professor James Murphy about current fisheries management practices and what could be done to improve them.
