E01 IMPACT OF DYNAMITE FISHING IN LANGALANGA LAGOON

Dynamite fishing causes serious problems. It harms coral reefs, reduces fish numbers, impacts coastal communities and small fisheries and hurts tourism. The Langa Langa Lagoon in the Solomon Islands is known for making traditional shell money, which is important for local customs like weddings and resolving conflicts. But illegal dynamite fishing now threatens the lagoon's significance. This harmful practice has damaged once-thriving reefs, turning them into lifeless underwater areas. Jeremy Gwao talks with villagers in the Langalanga Lagoon in the first part of a series by Tavuli News on dynamite fishing.

Military grade explosives such as TNT were used in LLL and in Solomon Islands, it is more powerful then dynamite and other commercial grade explosives. 'Bomb fishing' would be more fitting.
