The Ocean Is Running Out of Fish. Here's the Alarming Math.

Based on reporting, the ocean has long appeared to offer an infinite bounty of fish. But recent, more accurate research paints a far grimmer picture, with annual catch on a precipitous and potentially catastrophic decline.

we're basically running out of everything on

[asifsba]

I guess there aren't plenty of fish in the sea

[HarisEka]

we eat too much, we waste too much. human body is an efficient machine, but our lifestyle is barely efficient.

The amount of fish that are caught in each net is staggering. Watch any video on huge hauls and you’ll see the immense amount they pull up. But they don’t just do this once a day, which you’d think would be all people would need to eat. They do multiple hauls, one after another, day in and out. It’s actually insane how much they catch, and yet so much of it goes to waste because the commercial fishing industry is built around sales numbers instead of the needs of the customers. Very few people eat fish every day, even most days, and so there’s a huge chance for loss of stock. I think people should try to fish for themselves, or at the very least support local fishermen.

i mean it would help if we did not dump all of our waste in there

Less humans = less consumption = less demand <--- easy math.

[brokyoynex]

In some countries there's a restriction to catch fish in specific months. I think all the countries should follow, what scientist says.

"The ocean called, they're running out of shrimps..."

[leviahimsa]

No such thing as sustainable animal derived products.

We were told this would happen 2000 years ago, in fact it said 1/3 of the oceans sea life will die.Also said it would get hot as well.All we are missing is a meteor the size of a mountain would fall in the sea.

[srihari]

[conanthedestroyer]

Outlaw all industrial and commercial fishing in the wild oceans and seas worldwide. Do it NOW!!!

[kephalopod]

How long before the human species self-extinguish?

[jwlxbfkgfjwcjx]

Is this serious? If so why isn't it Top news???

[packapunch]

[harleyquinn]

[joseramonvelazquezgranados]

Sadfully fishers know this but they only care about money there are big declines in thunnus genus members

[michaelgalliven]

yea that's why there are ocean reserves and we need more and whole coast lines that are marine reserve

[GuacIsExtra]

And Applebee’s is over here bringing back all you can eat shrimp
