S6 Part III: Vanishing Islands
Host Ruxandra Guidi and the reporting team meet with descendants of climate refugees who arrived in the Solomon Islands in the 1960s from the atolls of Kiribati. This community, like many others across the Solomon Islands, continues to grapple with climate-fueled changes today. According to Alec Hughes, a coastal and marine management expert based in Munda, Solomon Islanders are witnessing changes in their local environment, and fish stocks that make it clear "that there’s a lot more fishers out there and there’s a lot of demand for fish.” Munda tribal chief John Pina shares Hughes’s concern as he notes that he, too, is observing a shift away from the cultural norms and traditional practices that have shaped his community for centuries.

About The Catch
On Season 6 of The Catch, host Ruxandra Guidi takes a look at one of the world’s most lucrative fish: tuna. The Pacific islands’ tuna fishery makes up more than half of global tuna supply and underpins these developing islands’ economies. But that could change. Climate change is pushing the fishery out of these islands’ waters, onto the high seas, and these island nations risk losing out. On this season, Guidi reports from the Solomon Islands to hear firsthand how the Pacific nations are grappling with these changes.
