I just finished watching the documentary..."The end of the line" mainly about tuna but this is a must see.

basically... the rest of the world is raping the oceans and if we keep going at our current rate there will be nothing left in the ocean in 50 years. Europe and Asia need to get some control on their fishery...we look good compared to them.

An interesting note on that point, the 'empty oceans by 2048'- It was a theory put out in 2006 (I think), but was roundly rebuked two years later... But people still cite it as fact. I just read an interesting article on just that, I'll try & remember to post it on Monday.

End of the Line is a good movie though- not wholly accurate, but still good. Like anything, it's best to get your information from both sides and decide what you believe from there, rather than just one source.

When "WE" are done with the way we handle the oceans.
Not just over fishing, we will all have a jellyfish sea to enjoy.
Seems jellyfish just love what we do. Google it and look around.

May fortune favor the foolish....
