44 Another change is that before, we knew when the rainy season would be. We could plan our planting schedule because we knew the period of good weather when it did not rain that much. So we planted on the month when we predicted good weather to plant, and when we need to transplant. But the problem now is the sudden change in weather.You cannot predict anymore when it will rain. When it rains, it is continuous and torrential; sometimes to the point that the rice fields cannot accommodate the volume of water. We used to work in our rice fields from about five o’clock in the morning until evening. Our only break was when we chew betel nut or just merely rest. When we went home, we felt fine. But these days, we work at seven but we need to leave the rice fields by 11 because the heat is different. It is painful on our skin.209 The fisheries and aquaculture sector are also greatly affected by climate change. Rising sea surface temperatures and changing ocean circulation,210 ocean acidification and coral bleaching,211 and the alteration of the physiological processes and the seasonality of biological rhythms that alter food webs and fish production in the coral triangle all contribute to the worsening experience of fisherfolk.212 Significant impacts on fisherfolk include reduced fish abundance and catch, damage to fishing gear and fishing infrastructure, and increased risks to safety–all threatening the livelihood of fisherfolk. As Pablo Rosales narrated, fisherfolk “were deprived of our livelihood because the water becomes warmer, which resulted in fish kill. Of course, that is our livelihood, and if these occur, that is a problem to us.”213 Elma Reyes, a fish vendor whose husband is a fisherman, recounted that: My child once asked me, “Mama, it’s already Holy Week, why is the weather still bad? It wasn’t like this before.” I said, “Yes, child, this is what I have been taught at the seminar. This is what they called climate change.” We know that every Holy Week the sea would be very still. Now it’s different. It’s been a week now that my husband could not go out to the sea. It has a huge effect on me. 209 Id. at 181. 210 Coral Triangle Initiative on Coral Reefs, Fisheries and Food Security, Region-Wide Early Action Plan for Climate Change Adaptation for the Nearshore Marine and Coastal Environment and Small Island Ecosystems (REAP-CCA) (Jakarta: CTI Interim Regional Secretariat) (2011). 211 Id. 212 Id. 213 T.S.N. of the Second Inquiry Hearing dated 23-24 May 2018, at 55-56.
