Assessing Marine Resources in Alaska’s Remote Bering Sea

Assessing Marine Resources in Alaska’s Remote Bering Sea

In the remote waters of Alaska's Bering Sea, a tiny community wants to maintain its rich resources. St. George Island is home to about 80 residents - many of whom rely heavily on the island’s natural resources for cultural and subsistence purposes. To help the community plan resource protections, Earth Economics is conducting an economic assessment of St. George Island and its surrounding marine area.
