Overfishing
Bycatch and discards and bottom trawling destruction are two examples of this.
WHY IS OVERFISHING A PROBLEM?: To explain why overfishing is a problem we first have to get an
idea on the scale of the problem. This is best done by looking at repord published by the Food and
Agriculture Organization scientists.
The above shows that over 25% of all the world's fish stocks are either overexploited or depleted
(dipliitid). Another 52% is fully exploited, these are in imminent danger of overexploitation and collapse
(kollaaps). Therefore a total of almost 80% of the world's fisheries are fully to over exploited, depleted,
or in a state of collapse. Worldwide about 90% of the stocks of large predatory fish stocks are already

We are losing species as well as entire ecosystems. As a result the overall ecological unity of our
