The Degradation of Marine Ecosystems: The Consequences of Overfishing
85%
of fisheries are at or beyond their limits
Overfishing and bycatch are significant environmental concerns. Over 85% of the world’s fisheries are pushed to or beyond their limits, and the amount of wild-caught seafood remains flat, leading to the degradation of marine ecosystems, human conflict, and the unintended killing of commercially undesirable vulnerable marine species through bycatch.
