Sell a man fish, he eats for a day. Teach a man how to fish and youâll get fishing quotas and overfishing, youâll get bottom trawlers that destroy the environment, youâll get gigantic ocean plastic continents that are the size of countries, you get general habitat degradation, fish that arenât fresh and frozen for weeks. Up to almost 40% of all the fish we catch is fish we donât intend to catch, itâs called bycatch and weâre doing it. Not to even mention all the unreported and illegal fishing we have absolutely no idea. Extinction events, we are the extinction event. Donât 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 think Iâve told you this story IRL, but witnessing first hand the damages caused by overfishing and trawlers during my scuba diving journey is what made me become a vegetarian. I stopped eating fish first, and then realized that the same logic applied to meat, so I cut that out of my diet too. Never looked back

Yeah while I was writing this I was reminded of our conversation for sure and I honestly couldnât agree more. I was thinking about this while I was surfing today, I think if you care about the ocean you end up caring about what happens in the ocean, this is generally pretty natural progression

Environment is different for everyone, thus we have different levels of attachment to certain religions and ideologies. I appreciate you, random person. For sharing your experience. I think overfishing is more so a corporation problem. So for me, it leads to wealth inequality and capitalism as the root problem.
