1.2 billion people identity fish as a key part of their diet. 7 million tons (10% of the world catch) is returned dead to the sea.
It takes about 7 years for an overfished area to return to reasonable health, assuming absolutely nobody will touch it.
99% of the world's ocean is unprotected. The government should set up limits just like the state of Alaska has. The ocean controls our climate, provide us with nutrition and ship materials to our country.
The oceans are polluted and we are slowly killing marine life. The U.S. Government should put more emphasis on keeping our oceans clean!
A moratorium for fishing in overfished areas should be brought in.
