It argues that by viewing waste as a resource, these sectors can achieve significant environmental and economic benefits. The editorial highlights the concerning volume of waste generated in fisheries and aquaculture, including unwanted fish, aquaculture waste, and plastic pollution. It then discusses the potential of waste-to-wealth solutions, such as fish waste valorization, aquaculture wastewater treatment, and plastic pollution reduction. The editorial emphasizes the crucial role of environmental biology in driving this revolution by providing expertise in ecosystem understanding, waste management optimization, sustainable resource management, and monitoring and evaluation. Finally, it highlights the future direction of environmental biology in this context, focusing on innovative technology development, long-term ecological understanding, and stakeholder collaboration..
