Of Fish and People: Modelling a Muddle

Subtitle: Modelling a muddle
Synopsis: Thousands of jobs in the United Kingdom hinge on catching fish in the waters around Britain. Against this there is the problem of an ever-diminishing stock of fish in these areas. How do we go about understanding the relationship between the need for food and employment and creating a sustainable future in the marine ecosystem? This programme looks beyond the well-known problems of the European Community fishing policy to a possible solution.

Notes: NB. As of May 2016 Open University Worldwide are no longer distributing DVDs. They have posted this message on their website: ‘Unfortunately Open University Worldwide Limited has decided that product sales are no longer viable given the reduced funding to Higher Education institutions and diminishing demand for the products we have traditionally stocked. At present the Open University Students Association (OUSA) will continue to sell the "Good Study Guide", and we are in discussion with other possible distributors to continue to make The Open University’s products available for purchase. As soon as we have any information on other channels of distribution we will update this notice’. Some products are still available via second hand dealers on Amazon.co.uk
