Abstract

Aquaculture facilitates food security in the changing climate through its best innovative technologies, which provide protein-rich aquatic nutrition, livelihood opportunities and ecosystem sustainability through integrated aquaculture systems. Anthropogenic activity causes greenhouse gas emissions. Technological breakthroughs in aquaculture are necessary to combat the threat of climate change. Climate-SMART Aquaculture is a revolutionary approach anticipated to enhance global food security and environmental sustainability in contempt of climate change. Its adaptation and mitigation strategies promote increased climate resilience and adaptive ability to climate change. The key components of climate smart aquaculture include sustainable development practices, developing climate resilient species and innovative technologies such as RAS, IMTA and AI monitoring of aqua-farm. The Climate-SMART Aquaculture emphasizes three primary objectives such as long-term increases in production along with revenue, climate change adoption and climate change mitigation. This chapter explains how climate-smart aquaculture helps in mitigating climate-change impacts through innovative aquaculture practices.
