Occurrence of Overfishing Places like Japan consume a lot of fish so overfishing there is especially common A lot of places eased up on overfishing, except: North Sea Baltic sea Bay of Biscay
Why are we allowing overfishing? We have been trying to stop over fishing, and many places have showed improvements Other places who eats fishes daily and in large amount, like Japan, still over fish
How overfishing effect the aquatic ecosystem Left over nets and other material are dumped into the ocean and is a hazard to other sea animals http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=En0hBxR8YhE&feature=related http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=d83Wc6S9r24 Predator who prey on a specific fish will either adapt or die Population of different species will decline
Stop eating all the fish!!! Stop overfishing! Dietary impact, intake less fish and find a substitute for it Enforcement, nations can control territorial waters, but some doesn’t enforce the law Stop eating all the fish!!!
