Sell a man fish, he eats for a day. Teach a man how to fish and you’ll get fishing quotas and overfishing, you’ll get bottom trawlers that destroy the environment, you’ll get gigantic ocean plastic continents that are the size of countries, you get general habitat degradation, fish that aren’t fresh and frozen for weeks. Up to almost 40% of all the fish we catch is fish we don’t intend to catch, it’s called bycatch and we’re doing it. Not to even mention all the unreported and illegal fishing we have absolutely no idea. Extinction events, we are the extinction event. Don’t even get me started on farmed fishing, it is a nightmare. Think industrial chicken farming but with fish. We truly are not going to be eating real fish in 100 years I bet. Probably for the best I know; but the consequences will be total and utter destruction of our ocean habitat and ecosystem

I believe that for many environmental issues that affect our planet, a point of no return has been reached. I don't think it's just a problem that concerns consumers, but more than anything the fear of governments to make courageous decisions. People adapt, if one day they told us that we can no longer eat salmon, we would accept it as we have done with many other things. The problem is the millions of jobs that depend on the fishing industry. Those are difficult to adapt.
