Worldwide fishing almost maxed out
A report out this morning finds 85 percent of the world’s fisheries are either fished to capacity or facing collapse. Sam Eaton looks into the problems some countries are facing and what could help curb the issue.
More bad news! Or a group with an agenda?
It certainly sounds plausible.
I think it was in Mrs. Cancino’s class that we did the animal population charts. When two species rely on each other in a predator/prey relationship, they are constantly fluctuating in population size. When the mouse population becomes large, the hawks flourish, until the mouse population is over-killed, then the hawk’s population falls, and the mice start to grow again.
Of course, humans are unique in that we have conscious, deliberate ways of controlling our population, as well of that of animals.
Certainly, there is not an unlimited amount of fish in the sea. We’ll just have to start controlling population, like we do with cows, chicken, etc.
