But over the years, this zero-investment natural farming, with minimal environmental impact, has begun to falter. And along with the healthy fishes, the number of traditional fishermen like Gopi is also dwindling. Gopi is losing faith in the traditional method. He says, “Fungal and bacterial infection keeps killing the fishes.”

Though modern medicines offer solutions to treat infections, lately that solution is backfiring. Drugs like antimicrobials (antibiotics, antivirals, antifungals) which treat diseases by attacking microbes (bacteria, virus and fungus), are not able to kill the pathogens.

Microbes are ubiquitous, but not all of them lead to diseases, instead they make life possible as we know it. But when microbes are constantly exposed to antimicrobials, they can self-mutate in response to the stressful environment, and develop resistance to the antimicrobials – a process called antimicrobial resistance (AMR). Overuse, misuse and the improper disposal of drugs like antibiotics in hospitals, livestock farms, fisheries and households, has allowed AMR pathogens to proliferate to far off spaces. And with the changing climate, more farm diseases are hitting production, resulting in the need to use more antibiotics.

In 2017, Kerala recognised the threat of Antimicrobial Resistance (AMR) in farming (with changing climate more farm diseases hit production and need more antibiotics), and set up the Kerala Antimicrobial Resistance Strategic Action Plan (KARSAP). Kerala, where Gopi practices fishing, is one of the few states in India, (apart from Delhi and Madhya Pradesh) which has an action plan to fight against AMR. 

AMR has a domino effect, impacting every form of life. Research shows that more and more microbes around the world are becoming resistant to drugs. In 2019, directly and indirectly, 4.95 million people in 204 countries died because drugs could not treat microbial infections.

The science of protests: how to shape public opinion and swing votes  https://www.nature.com/articles/d41586-024-02082-5 Helen Pearson

non-violent protests are more effective at achieving goals than are violent ones.... effectiveness of non-violent revolutionary campaigns is waning over time — in part, they say, because governments are learning how to suppress uprisings.

But there is evidence that these types of protest can have an impact. Social Change Lab asked around 2,000 people — before, during and after disruptive protests in the United Kingdom by Just Stop Oil and Extinction Rebellion in April 20228. The protesters blockaded oil depots and glued themselves to government buildings and oil-company offices. Most people who were surveyed opposed the actions, but continued to support climate policies and Just Stop Oil’s goals to stop new fossil-fuel projects. This counters the view that disruptive action can sour public opinion on an issue.

it’s important.. to recognize that protesters are often expressing anger, grief and frustration as well as trying to drive change. “Sometimes, people have deep feelings that need a platform and a means of expression,” 

“Non-violence is effective. But what’s especially effective is non-violence met by repression,”
