Support efforts to reduce existing non-climate stressors on traditionally-harvested species. A first step in improving climate resilience is to limit the effects of current stressors such pollution and other impacts that degrade habitats. Habitat fragmentation can affect the health and vitality of traditionally-harvested species and limit access areas. Reducing these existing stressors can increase the health of the species, and surrounding ecosystems, and make it better able to handle and more quickly recover from extreme weather events. These efforts may require enhancements to monitoring systems or increased integration between programs.
