Fish need better protection - otherwise our Oceans will be empty pretty soon

BBC News: Fisheries waste ‘costs billions’

The Oceans are the last frontier on this planet. They basically are unprotected - and therefore nobody really cares what’s happening there.

If you fish inside a nations maritime border you can run into serious trouble for over-fishing, but on the wide Oceans nobody cares.

So over-fishing is slowly killing one species after another and creating so called deadzones, where there is nothing in the water, because the circle of life has been eaten by us.

It is almost to late to establish better rules and technologies for industrial fishing. And recognize that the vast oceans are not so vast and plentiful they once were.
