The EPA estimates a frightening decline in cold water fisheries by the end of this century. Unmitigated Climate Change is expected to reduce habitat suitable for coldwater fisheries nationally by approximately 62% by 2100.  While a best case scenario Global Greenhouse Gas (GHG) mitigation plan might slow that loss to only 12%, the stark reality is that coldwater habitats are disappearing at an alarming rate.
