This article investigates the potential of coastal fisheries to contribute to climate change mitigation through blue carbon ecosystems. It focuses on habitats like mangroves, seagrasses, and salt marshes, which not only capture atmospheric carbon but also support marine biodiversity and fishery productivity. The objective is to assess how integrating blue carbon science with fisheries resource management can enhance ecological sustainability and climate resilience. This article reviews blue carbon practices and policies, highlighting challenges like data gaps, weak coordination, and limited community involvement. It calls for integrated strategies that link climate goals, livelihoods, and carbon finance, emphasizing inclusive, science-based approaches to enhance both environmental sustainability and socioeconomic resilience in coastal regions.
