The Mauritanian government recently signed a contract with China to let Chinese trawlers fish off its coast for the next quarter of a century.The deal was looked to as a positive development... one that will provide jobs for more than 20-thousand fishermen in the vast Saharan nation.Unfortunately there are some incredible downsides to this development.According to some critics, the 25-year offshore fishing license will merely take food out of mouths of the poor West African nation.Around 40-thousand local fishermen might lose their jobs as their tools are no match for advanced Chinese trawlers.With resource-hungry China massively investing in ways to secure raw materials to feed its economy... many countries including Mauritania, are deeply concerned about losing access to natural resources like forest and fisheries.Environmental activists are calling for the deal's cancellation, highlighting facts like depleting fish stocks and destruction of the livelihoods of locals.
