Connecting consumers and food producers at the micro-level is crucial for the development of sustainable food systems. This can help consumers to avoid stale and sometimes unsafe food and instead have access to fresh local products. Meanwhile, such an approach supports local farmers and the rural economy as well as rebuilding social capital based on trust and other societal values. With this issue having been around for some time now, consumers are increasingly more often searching for fresh, locally sourced food.

Within the European fishing fleet new generations of technologically advanced, hyper efficient industrial vessels, have gotten too good at fishing. This limited number of vessels has a massive impact on the ocean. Fish stocks have largely declined since the 1980s, but not all fishers contribute to the problem to the same extent, nor are all fishing livelihoods impacted to the same degree. The crisis of overfishing, fuelled in large part by a small number of vessels, is threatening the livelihoods of coastal communities and small-scale fisheries around the world who depend on the ocean as a source of food and income.
