Depleting Fish Stocks Solutions – YouTube inside
The world is facing a food crisis. The U.N. World Food Programme warned that "a record 345 million acutely hungry people are marching to the brink of starvation”. And one of the world’s most important protein sources is dwindling - fish. Two-thirds of the world's fish stocks are either fished at their limit or overfished. In the South China Sea, Vietnamese fishing boats vie with Chinese fleets for shrinking fishing grounds. In Indonesia, rising fuel prices mean fishermen are leaving their boats in the docks, unable to afford traveling beyond the overfished coastal waters. In India, climate change and heatwaves are wreaking havoc on wild fisheries and fish farms, as water temperature becomes unconducive for aquaculture.
