Having been to the polar region, I have seen first hand the accelerated pace at which the ice caps are melting. It is just a matter of time we see those changes on our coastline.....

Masukude and her daughter, Zoleka, are both skilled lobster fishers who live off the ocean on the South African Wild Coast. It is people like her and her family that will bear the brunt of climate change.....

A4: There has been less availability of our beloved seafood such as snoek, yellowtail and crayfish, species of cultural significance to many Capetonians! @WWFSASSI@WWFSouthAfrica@sanlam#ClimateChangeOceans
@WWFSASSI@WOOLWORTHS_SA@WoolworthsGBJ A2: I think we are already seeing the impacts of ocean warming in may parts of our country especially in coastal communities. Fishers have mentioned that the fish is moving away and it gets hard to catch the species they used to catch. And the patterns are more unpredictable now.
@WWFSASSI coastal communities, small-scale and commercial fishers. Anyone who relies on the ocean for their livelihoods especially small island nations #climatechangeoceans
Will we even have an ocean by then, or even land? We will experience sea level rise. Changes in the chemistry of the ocean and all species found there #ClimateChangeOceans@WWFSouthAfrica@WWF-SASSI
A2: Shifting fish distributions and migration patterns for species such as sardines, horse mackerel, tuna, squid and many linefish species have meant that they are not readily available to fishers and therefore to consumers #ClimateChangeOceans
