And what will they do when all the fish stocks have gone? Ask the government for subsidies because they can no longer afford to fish for nothing? 1 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post spidermike007 Posted January 2 Popular Post Share Posted January 2 A lot of people see the seas as an unlimited resource and a lot of people do not consider overpopulation to be an issue. What's happening is that the quality of life continues to decline, the oceans are getting polluted and depleted, and what is our future going to look like, with that declining quality of life? 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They will when the fish stocks are zero... you think the fishermen are going to sell their boats and retire. They'll join the we're poor brigade. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Canada the Newfies caught all the cod fish and that was the end of that. No more cod fishery. They got too high tech and done themselves in.
