Well, if you haven’t and want to see it or want to see the sight again, then please help to make a change and put an end to overfishing. This problem is called overfishing. I am an eleven year old boy in 6th grade at the Pegasus School, and for the past 3 months I have been researching the topic of overfishing. Due to bycatch, illegal fishing, and overexploited fisheries, fish are dying at an alarming rate, so we need to create and enforce more laws to stop overfishing.

Overfishing has led to a massive depletion of Gulf fish stock, so Dubai has announced plans to crack down on illegal sales of immature fish. Locals frequently sited tradition and jobs as justification for eating hamour, for example, one of the most overfished species in the world, and law enforcement was virtually non-existent.

While global warming and growing atmospheric carbon that eventually finds its way into the oceans are still partially responsible for the coral decline, the main culprits in case of the Caribbean are deforestation and overfishing. Also overfishing has led to drastic decline in reef fish that feed on algae. This also puts the local denizens in spotlight as both overfishing ad deforestation are a direct result of human action.

Especially during El Niño events, warm Pacific Ocean waters—sometimes with overfishing as an accomplice—have over the decades led to numerous anchovy population crashes and devastated harvests. The vast majority of the world’s forage fish stocks are either considered fully exploited, with no room for safely increasing the catch, or they are already overfished and in need of rebuilding.

Things like overfishing, deforestation and the illegal wildlife trade are the biggest contributors, but there are also less obvious threats like consumer-driven demand for products like clothes, which can cause pollution in their production. The scale of global overfishing has dramatically increased as well. Scientists have seen declines in larger predator fish as their food supply dwindles due to overfishing, so the impact on marine ecosystems is widespread.

But a $300 “rental” fee negotiated with the local women sellers gave them access to 600 pounds of fish for data collection — a fantastic resource that also provided an opportunity to discuss Palau’s overfishing problem with a broad community of fish sellers and buyers.

High consumer demand means that tuna are being endangered by commercial overfishing. These stocks are not threatened by overfishing, and the fishing method avoids killing the huge numbers of other small fish that are caught in commercial nets. If you're keen to benefit from the fish's health-giving properties, instead of cutting it out entirely, try only buying rod- and line-caught skipjack tuna.
